Don't like either

I get a German surname impression from Bloom more than a particularly personable/naturey one. Blum. Blumberg. Rosenblum. Which could be good but I feel the vibe is weirdly stiff/formal for the meaning.

I like Blossom, but it's about as frou frou seeming as Clover, Rainbow, Blessing or as geeky as Pepper.

I was just thinking about Bloom yesterday! I think it makes a lovely middle name. Blossom doesn’t have the same appeal, it’s slightly too over the top for me.

Blossom, Snowblossom, Mayblossom, Roseblossom, Etc. will always be GP to me

Blossom is nice as a middle name. Bloom is just silly.

I love them both!

Bloom makes me think of the Ulysses character. I think it's very silly.

I guess I prefer Blossom? But only at gunpoint.

I don't like them, but Blossom is much more preferable.

Bloom reminds me of algae bloom, which ... is a nasty and not a beautiful thing to see. Blossom on the other hand, sounds childish but I can see it as a baby girl's name.

I dislike both quite a lot, but if I had to pick I’d say Bloom. It’s slightly less childish although both are pretty childish. If Bloom didn’t mean what it meant, it would be comparable to Brooke. Also, it’s a last name so that makes it slightly less weird. But I couldn’t imagine either on a real person over 10, let alone in a professional setting.

Bloom has potential, if carefully paired.
I can't see Blossom as a good idea. I don't care for it at all.

Bloom? Like Bloom from Winx - my first thought. (I don't know much about Winx, though).
Bloom sounds like boiling water and Blossom reminds me of the word "bosom".
I think, I'd prefer Bloom.

I don’t care for Blossom, but Bloom is one of my gp names. I’d only prefer it for a middle name, though.
