Baby Names

Pocket full of Posies...

My DH really likes the name Posy...I think it's cute ( I think lol ) but would use it as a nn for Josephine. Like or dislike?

Also, we have a Lillian (Lilly) so do you think two "flower" names are too much?

TIA!Smile

Re: Pocket full of Posies...

  • I love the name Posy. :)

  • I think Posy is cute, but I do think it would be too cheesy with a Lilly. 
  • I think that Posy is cute as a nickname (not as a full name--- too cutesy), but I wouldn't do too flower names, if your daughter goes by Lily and not Lillian (if she goes by Lillian, I don't think it's a problem). I love flower names (Violet, Iris, Lily), but I've accepted that I can only pick one.
  • I like Posy as a nickname for Josephine.  I do not think two flower names are too much especially since they are both nicknames.

  • Posy is a cute nn...and not with lily too cheesy for me.
  • I think if both Lily and Posy are nns for longer names that they can go by when they get older if they choose then it's not too cheesy at all.  In fact I think it's pretty darn cute!

  • You'd have a bouquet!

    I like it as a nn for Josephine. I love Josephine. But with Lily you may want to go with a different nn.

    I also think of 'posies as in Disposable diapers. Most people wouldn't associate it but on cloth diaper message boards they are often referred to as 'posies

  • Just FYI "pocket full of posies" is a song about dead people during the plague.

    Agreed, it's a super cute nickname. I am loving all the Josephine's lately!

  • Posie's cute.  I don't think it would be too much with Lily.  I've heard sib set names that are SO much weirder than that.

  • I have a Lily and a Poppy. I had the post about Posy or Magnolia the other day. So no, I dont think more than one flower child is too many!
