Due date is next week. Imogen has been top choice for the last few months but I'm wondering about Poppy now. Would welcome your thoughts. Thanks x

Imogen is lovely. Can you cope with the shortened version of Immy? Bound to happen.

Pixi2 · 25/10/2015 07:35

Use both? Imogen Poppy/Poppy Imogen works well.
We did that with dd when we couldn't decide what name to give her (and then spent another 48 hours wondering which way round they should go).

ktmummy1 · 25/10/2015 07:30

Both lovely. Imogen just pips it for me

Janey215 · 25/10/2015 07:28

Imogen - would've been top of my girl list too. Poppy way too cutsie.
I love Immie as nn too. Imogen is classic always around but not over used imo - love it

BoboBunnyH0p · 14/10/2015 06:22

Imogen is my vote but I'm bias as its my daughters name.

Siennasun · 13/10/2015 22:24

Imogen is nice.
Poppy is twee and, like Daisy, should be reserved for cows

CPtart · 13/10/2015 20:29

Imogen.
The Poppy I know has siblings called Sonny and Alfie. So definitely Imoogen!

Imogen Poppy

MissEeerie · 13/10/2015 20:25

Imogen.

Zhabr · 13/10/2015 16:12

Imogen nn Immy

starkers1 · 13/10/2015 15:54

Another vote for Poppy. Graceful but quirky, feminine, slightly bohemian, Imogen is just that bit try hard for me and sadly, never met a non-bitchy/catty one either!

PeasinPod1 · 13/10/2015 15:49

Poppy!! Can't stand Imogen, really overly twee and proper.

Yika · 12/10/2015 21:09

Imogen.

Poppy too cute. Better for a puppy.

Moodyblue1 · 12/10/2015 21:08

Imogen is lovely. I really like Poppy too but I know 3 all under 2 so that would put me off a bit.

BeautifulLiar · 10/10/2015 20:20

Imogen. There are no ugly Imogens!

Kaekae · 10/10/2015 20:17

To me they feel like completely different in terms of style of name. But like them both. I have a Poppy, it has become extremely popular, it wasn't when I named my daughter it but I hear it a lot now. I only know of one Imogen.

JoeMommuh · 10/10/2015 19:01

Imogen. Poppy feels a bit too trendy/now/cutesie

FunkyPeacock · 10/10/2015 18:19

Another vote for Imogen

I like Poppy too but think it suits a small girl better than a grown woman

Scoobydoo8 · 10/10/2015 18:10

Neither. Elizabeth.

celtictoast · 10/10/2015 17:52

Poppy is currently in the top 10 girls names, but Imogen is racing up the charts and is also very popular at the moment.

Princerocks · 10/10/2015 17:46

Poppy

LumelaMme · 10/10/2015 17:38

Imogen.

CatsAreLikeChocolates · 10/10/2015 17:31

Imogen

Allalonenow · 10/10/2015 17:19

Imogen, very pretty for a little girl, yet also classy and grown up.

DramaAlpaca · 10/10/2015 17:13

Imogen
