HelpThoughts on these girl names?
Replies
Blossom - very sweet, I like it
Meadow - it has more character but it also radiates calm
Indigo - don't like the colour, don't like the word
Skye - makes me think of an upper class, blase teen
Star - very quirky but cute
Lotus - no. It's an ugly word, I don't care how pretty the flower is, the name sounds awful
Love - definitely great as a middle name, as a first name it's a bit more risky but I think some people could pull it off

I would despise being called Love. The rest are not my taste but not an abomination like that.
However I do like Lotus and Indigo. Would not use them however.

Blossom, Meadow, Indigo and Skye I love. Star, Lotus and Love are ok.
Honestly, all of them feel like you’re naming a horse, not a person. Except Blossom, which is giving cow.
Don't like any
Blossom - I feel like it should be okay yet I don't like it. The immediate image that comes to mind is a prey animal whose main characteristics are cuteness and feebleness. I don't like the sounds in it, nor the word-associations I have - blah-some, b-loss-sum. I can imagine Blossom as the name of an assertive competent character, sure, it's not an awful name. I just don't feel like it really *fits* such a character. It's too pathetically rustic, somehow.
Meadow - it's like a low-key opposite of Blossom; I think it would fit a smart and sensitive character alright, despite being excessively pastoral and borderline just dumb. Meadow seems to me like one of the better "field-mousey" type hippie names. Meadow > Clover > Flower > Blossom. I think I could kinda forget Meadow was a word, if it were the name of someone I knew - like with Jasmine, it just becomes a name easily, for me.
Indigo - Seems very late nineties / oughts new-agey, almost abrasively so. I think it was used for a lot of characters but didn't seem to make the cut as a good name for a person, in the past. As a baby name today it's alright - would blend in pretty well, leaving a nice little memory hole into which "indigo children" might fall and be forgotten. I'd like it more if it were not three syllables - the length makes it a tad overbearing to me. Also if the nick wasn't Indy, which is puppyish. I named a cat Indy circa 2000. Indigo seems more urban, more "sexless abstract wordname trend" than actually hippie style now. Sibs like Sage and Nova. I don't like it, don't hate it. I could see nn Ingo.

I love Blossom, Meadow, Indigo, and Star! Skye is alright, but I prefer Skylar. I'm not a fan of Lotus or Love.
I like Indigo
I like Star
