How many "Poppy"s do you know?

Misfitless · 14/08/2014 23:33

I was just wondering, as I know it's become very popular over the past 10 years or so (I blame Jamie Oliver ).

So, if you've got too much time on your hands, and you don't mind sharing, tell me how many you know/have met.

Thanks!

I know two, and have come across two others (not too mention numerous cats, dogs and horses!)

TheCowThatLaughs · 14/08/2014 23:44

Ooh is it a riddle?

PenelopeGarciasCrazyHair · 14/08/2014 23:47

I know 4 girls aged 3-10, one cat, one dog and one horse!

MissSmiley · 14/08/2014 23:48

I know one age 16.

feesh · 14/08/2014 23:51

One child and one dog

BasketzatDawn · 14/08/2014 23:53

I think I know/know of 3 - all late teens.

clary · 14/08/2014 23:54

I know three, 2 are 13 and the other is 15.

I don't know many children below the age of about 10 tho (my youngest DC is 11).

WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes · 14/08/2014 23:55

One, aged 5.

RandomFriend · 14/08/2014 23:56

Lovely name - I know two:

1 Poppy age 17 - but it is a nic-name, not a registered birth name;
1 Poppy mid-thirties, from a Southern-African country.

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 14/08/2014 23:56

Only 2. One is my DD (aged 3) and the other is 14 months old.

Beautiful name (in my biased opinion). I have loved it since I was a child.

sunnydaylucy · 14/08/2014 23:57

One age 9, other age 4.

embox · 14/08/2014 23:59

2! One 4 one 20!

1 girl (She'd be 12 now)

3 dogs

Obviously, lots of flowers......particularly this year

Sophronia · 15/08/2014 00:00

I know one aged 22. It's one of my least favourite names.

newusernameplease · 15/08/2014 00:04

I don't know anybody but ds2 would have been poppy.
But must tell you that when I have ever mentioned it to anybody they have always commented about it being good job he was a boy.

I don't care though, its lovely name and the first thing I used to look out on in the morning, fields full of them.
