Wottknott we have a Poppy Cat too. She was named poppy as we got her on remembrance day last year.

I think Poppy Charlotte is gorgeous.

I do know two Poppy Katherines, but I think it's lovely.

Haha sorry everyone... thanks for the suggestions.... haha at yours suncottage .

Middle names are so hard, we wanted 1 syllable cos I think it flows better, as our surname is only short too. Although looking at some of the suggestions, I love Poppy Charlotte!!
Also like Poppy Belle, and love Grace but that is my new niece's middle name.

Hmm, we may end up with no middle name at all.

Thanks for all the replies :)

I have a Poppy too...seems its getting very popular. My ones mn is Elizabeth Ava. I agree you need a strong middle name, also I don't think another flower name alongside it works.

Poppy Joy is quite nice.

There you go, bext answer yet, end of discussion Grin
Wonder why I like it so much? Oh yes, our DD was called it for 48 hrs before we changed our mind about her first name! Shock
Still love it though, DH vetoed it!

Bathsheba · 18/11/2010 09:29

My Poppy is Poppy Charlotte

We looked at Poppy Alice and Poppy Louise as well...

lilly13 · 16/11/2010 21:04

What is a full name for Poppy? If the answer is none, then you need a very primitive middle name. Otherwise, it would just look and sound way too bizzarrrre....

Poppy Blue? Too 'out there'?

CharlieBoo · 16/11/2010 16:37

Why do you need a longer more formal name? When is anyone ever called their first and middle names together?

Fwiw I like Poppy Grace.
