Expecting a baby girl and really struggling to pick a name, so far all we have agreed on is Daisy but we are worried that it's too juvenile for an adult. So what do you think is Daisy too juvenile?

Full name would be Daisy Alexandra Forbes

Thoughts?

I do think it’s a bit juvenile. It’s pretty, but feels a bit flimsy and girly. I do feel this way about a lot of names of the same ilk though (Poppy, Ellie, Molly etc). I’m not convinced they age well. Alexandra is nice though or maybe Marguerite nn Daisy?

We have a grown up Daisy and we still love it. I guess wait until she’s born as she might not look like a Daisy.

Funny I remembered the other day our other daughter was going to be Minnie and I changed my mind and she’s 6ft now and it never occurred to me how ridiculous it would have been.

I work with a Daisy. I find the name a bit twee rather than juvenile, but should caveat by saying I'm not mad about flower names generally.

It’s just so… cow sounding.

Alexandra is 100% nicer.

We wouldn't have Alexandra as a first name, we don't love it and it's in tribute to MIL.
