Peony

So pretty and unique. Love flower names!

I adore this name! I find the 'eo' spelling in the name really cool + unique as I don't personally see it that often in names.

I usually like flower names, but I would not prefer this on a person!

It's a pretty name, I love it.

The flower is pretty, the name not so much.

The look of the name is rather strange to me and I dislike the way it is pronounced. Also, it sounds more fitting on a little girl rather than a grown woman.

I love a lot of flower names; Peony really shouldn't be one of them because:
A. I don't really like peonies that much.
B. It looks like peon followed by a Y
But I... like it? Why? Maybe it's because it's so bad it's good. I don't know. All I know is that I would use it if it weren't for all the better flower names, like Daisy and Zinnia for example.

I know a very nice girl named Peony, and while, as a synaesthete, the colours are quite nice, I still quite dislike the sound of it. She pronounces it pee-O-nee.

A fellow synesthete! I quite enjoy the name. 'P' names are soft on the lips and usually bouncy and whimsical (one exception to the rule is 'Parker,' where the 'k' sound throws me off a bit) and they sound like smooth, connected violin strumming, and they are written in orchid calligraphy. Peony is much the same -- and so is Pansy, for that matter, despite its connotations. I enjoy flower names in general, though, so maybe that's just me.

I will not mislead and say that this is a cute, or even moderate, name. It simply will not fit into English speaking countries. Especially considering the pronunciation-- which unfortunately resembles "Pee-On-Me" a bit too closely for my taste.

As a general rule: nature names have no place in the professional world. Meaning, it will not boost your career if you bear the title "Spring."

I often like flower names, and the Peony is a beautiful blossom.

But as a name, this is horrible. I just can't get over the PEE sound at the start.

I keep thinking the nickname for this will end up being Pee-pee.

I dislike the sound of this name. For some reason, it reminds me of a horse's whinny. Plus, I find most flower names tacky.

Sorry about the above comment. This name is actually growing on me, and I like it now! It's cute but serious at the same time. :)

Sweet, but I still hate this name, especially how it's spelled.

I read this as 'Pony' by mistake often. I like it. It's a sweet name.

Horrible name. I love peonies but not this name. No offense to the unlucky Peonies out there.

I like the spelling, but the pronunciation is just horrible! I reminds me of someone peeing down their knee! But, peony is a scent from BATH AND BODY WORKS, and it smells SO GOOD! I have it on right now!

I like peonies, but I don't like the sound of their name and could never name a child this.
