DH and I are going around in circles on girls' names. I had thought of Poppy but discounted it as although lovely for a little girl, not sure I think it would suit a grown woman. But names like Holly, Daisy, Rosie etc are similar and mainstream enough so maybe....? It's in the same vein as Chloe & Lola both of which I adore but not sure I'd use (Chloe coz so popular and Lola coz of the bloody kinks!)

I've seen it mentioned on here as a nickname for Penelope which is also on our list but seems bit of a stretch to me, penny the obvious nickname I think.

So what are people's thoughts on Poppy? Sibling are Noah & Sophia.

I know a lot of Poppy's so a bit common for me. I am sure it will be ok for grown ups by the time your dd is older. Must admit when I first heard it though I did ask myself does it pass the - this girl could be taken seriously as prime minister test with a resounding NO! But times change!
