Opinions on Aspen?

[GiGiV]

Aspen just seems like such a nice name!

Honest opinions?

[Fantasticmissfoxy]

It's a lovely ski resort, I'm not so sure it's a lovely name....

[Pooka]

Don't like it I'm afraid. Makes me think of a snake (asp) or jelly (Aspic). Just doesn't sound good to me.

[Chinlo]

Ski resort.

[DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen]

Ski resort.

[Blue2014]

Also looks a little bit like "alpen" (the cereal) sorry

[DearMrDilkington]

Made me think of painkillers.

[IEatCannibals]

Prefer Beaver Creek.

[lizzieoak]

Sounds like the syllable "ar" is missing. Just sounds like painkiller.

Where I live Cedar is not an uncommon name.

[FizzBombBathTime]

Reminds me of the film dumb and dumber

[OldRosesDoomed]

Opened the thread to say DH loves it. To ski. Goes every Feb with DS. They have a great time.

[GiGiV]

Okay, that's made my mind up. Clearly not happening.

[Sugarpiehoneyeye]

I quite like Aspen.
How about;
Ashton
Aston
Ashley

[OohNoDooEy]

I like it.

[Elbi]

Oh I love Aspen. It was on my list but couldn't find a good shortening without conjuring snake/Cleopatra images.

[JessieDoops]

Same as above... Painkillers

[Secretspillernamechange]

It's a type of woodchip you use as snake bedding, sorry.

[DoYouRememberJustinBobby]

It makes me think you're American.

[KoalaDownUnder]
