Hi all,
We don’t yet know the sex of our baby but have begun discussing baby names.
We like the name Poppy for sentimental reasons as we found out about her/him when the baby was the size of a Poppy seed and the nickname has just stuck. My gut feeling is that it’s a girl so...
What do you think of the name Poppy? And
Can you think of a middle name? (Surname begins with a W so no “E” names... don’t want a PEW baby haha!

Thanks!

Cute name for a baby or a kitten but not for a grown woman Envy

Honestly? I think it's very cutesy & twee. It's one of those names that's sweet on a toddler but as an adult I would hate to be called Poppy. Sorry to be blunt but you did ask for opinions.

I think your reason for choosing it is really lovely though.
