I started a thread about Primrose, Daphne and Bluebell and most of you preferred Primrose.
So.... hit me with everything you think about this name.
Would it be easy to live with at school? Is it too twee? What's your favourite nickname?
Do you know any that like their names?

I'm actually quite a reserved person and not one to go for a 'whacky' name, I just really love it. Equally, I don't want to lumber my dd with a limiting name so want honest opinions, I can take it!

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

She might be able to carry off the name but if my mum had called me Primrose I would have changed my name. I'm sorry but it's too twee for me.

I love Primrose, beautiful name. Nn Rose or Primmy? Bluebell is equally nice but I
Instantly think Geri Halliwell.

Don't like Daphne. Have you considered Posey?

It's not for me. But that's the joy of life, everyone has different tastes and I wouldn't leave it to a forum of strangers to name my babies!!

Grim and twee. Sorry.
