Daisy?

MinnieM

Thoughts on Daisy for a girl's name? My 10 year old niece suggested it and at first I wasn't wowed but now I keep thinking about it and I think it's kind of sweet. But will her name seem odd when she's an adult?

I think it is cute, but wouldn't grow well with her into adulthood.

I don't like it, it would be better for a pet IMO

I like it, but I'm LOL'ing b/c your SN is MinnieM.

If your name is Minnie I might consider vetoing Daisy.

It's beautiful and classic. I do feel that it grows well into adulthood and old age. It's my DD's mn.

I think it's a cute name, but I have a very hard time picture it on a middle aged woman.

Daisy Fuentes?

Ha, no! My real name is quite traditional.

Im with you, very cute.. but then when she is an adult.. unless she picks up her middle name like Daisy Mae kinda sounds really hick when you think about it that way tho...

I like Daisy. I also like a similar name - Daphne

I always think of the annoying woman from The Great Gatsby.  Or Daisy Duck.

I would never say this randomly but since you asked....That's my MIL's dogs name. So for me, no.

I love Daisy. I don't know if I would ever have the guts to use it, but it is very sweet and I can see it working well on a little girl and an adult.

I like some of the cute old fashined names, such as Molly, Daisy, Lucy, etc. I think they may be in their "prime" on the younger crowd, but I can still imagine a professional with one of these names.

I think you do have to be careful with what you pair it with as a middle name, though. If you are worried about a name sounding a certain way (too young, too country, whatever), use something a bit stately as a middle name (that still flows of course!) to offset it a bit.

I strongly dislike it.

I've liked it for a while but not sure I'd ever really use it since it does seem a bit young.

Reminds me of Gatsby too, or Daisy Fitzgerald. I love it!

My friend has a baby named Daisy. I'm not a fan.

This (and Daisy Miller).  And with the upcoming remake with Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan as Daisy I would expect a resurgence of the name.  It's one of my faves.  I wish I could use it, but it doesn't work with our last name.

I have a friend that named her daughter Daisy. I also have another friend who named her daughter Dixie...but I live in the South. I'm not a huge fan of the name.

I only know dogs named Daisy and a duck. So NO

My almost 3 yr old DD is Daisy Camille. It is not a name that everyone will like but I have not gotten even one negative opinion on it. We figure if it is ever to cutesy for her as she ages she can take her middle name which I think is very adult:).
