Absolutely gorgeous. If other plant/flower names are acceptable then why not Clover?! I love it!

DontCallMeShitley · 24/08/2019 19:07

I am sure I saw this thread a few weeks ago...

Many replies saying it was a good name for a cow. Or a spread.

It makes me immediately think of a bunny. Though I have no idea why. I like it :)

NoodlesMcGee · 24/08/2019 19:02

Definitely first thought "that would be a nice name for a cow".

4 leaf clover
Sorry, I don't like for a name.

Violetparis · 24/08/2019 19:00

It's a name for a cartoon cow.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 24/08/2019 18:58

I quite like it for a baby 🐄

Whattodo20192 · 24/08/2019 18:56

It's not ridiculous but it wouldn't be for me

crustycrab · 24/08/2019 18:52

It's a cows name

Whoops75 · 24/08/2019 18:51

Yes

It’s awful

MrsGilly1 · 24/08/2019 18:50

Hi,

I like it but I hear it a lot as a name for a pet x

pumkinspicetime · 24/08/2019 18:48

I considered this name and still like it.

Yika · 24/08/2019 18:47

I personally find it a bit ridiculous, to be honest. I'd suggest giving them a rather plain/classic middle name if you do go for it.

CherryPavlova · 24/08/2019 18:43

I know a middle aged Clover - real name is Clothilde but everyone calls her Clover. I think it’s rather nice.

AverageMummy · 24/08/2019 18:42

Just makes me think of margarine

BunnyJumps · 24/08/2019 18:31

Very bohemian. I like wouldn't use it but like it.

HeronLanyon · 24/08/2019 18:30

I like it. Not sure I would use it. I like it a lot when read in say a 1920s/30s novel.

EL8888 · 24/08/2019 18:30

Exactly this @amandajaynex

I like it

Troubledee · 24/08/2019 18:28

I like it

RedCowboyBoots · 24/08/2019 18:28

No, I really like it. She was the favourite sister in 'What Katy did'.
