Re: Opinions on Daisy...?
in reply to a message by Mildred
I adore Daisy but would only use it as a nick for Margaret or Marguerite just because there are those who:
1. view Daisy as a dog's name;
2. perceive someone name Daisy to be a ditz or intellectually challenged;
3. make up cute rhymes and pet names such as "lazy Daisy," "crazy Daisy," "pushing up daisies."
So as you can see, even though I love Daisy, I have serious reservations. And it doesn't help to see women TV with the name who are less than bright or not well spoken. Anyway, my favorite combo is Margaret Susanna (nn Daisy).
Hope this helps.
