Re: Blossom

Yeah, I used to think Blossom was ditzy, and I still sort of envision fairies, but it's started seeming more credible to me over the last couple years or so. I like that it has a unique sound.
FYI, I'm in the minority who like Flower, maybe more than Blossom or Florence (I know I'd rather introduce myself as Flower). I didn't consider it likable until a little before that post, but the more I thought about it, the more I liked it. I don't think it's sillier than Clover, Blossom, Meadow, Sunny, Jewel. Blossom is bright and happy and antique, but Flower seems more open or less cloying/contrived to me if that makes sense...I think it's partly because Blossom isn't a word I'd use typically, and partly because it sounds the age of Opal and Veda, which I have mixed feelings about.
