HelpRe: Polly
in reply to a message by Ani
I think Polly is very sweet, with a lovely, fresh yet vintage vibe. I do much prefer Molly or Holly though. Out of Polly and Poppy, I would absolutely choose Poppy, which I find to be a lovely name and the flowers are gorgeous too. Most people here hate Poppy with a passion though, which I have never understood.

I used to really like Poppy but ultimately removed it from my list because I hate how it sounds in my Chicago accent. Plus, I call my grandfather papa and it sounds a little too similar. Likewise, I don’t think Poppy sounds good / works for many Americans and that might be where the widespread dislike comes from on this bored? Otherwise, I know a lot of people just find it too cutesy.

I have a Chicago accent too and I don't think it sounds ugly in our accent :)

You know, I just recorded myself saying it a few times and I guess it really isn’t so bad. I think I’ve just been conditioned here in Texas to think that certain sounds sound weird / bad when I say them
