What does everyone think of Poppy?
is it likely to date badly?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I wanted the name poppy when I was pregnant

Unfortunately baby came out with a willy so the name got shelved

It's a gorgeous name

I love it. What matters is, do you like it?

Trumptontown · 21/08/2026 20:42

I love it.

Very twee and juvenile.

Ladamesansmerci · 21/08/2026 20:39

I like it 🤷 I think it's pretty and I personally think it will become a classic. Regardless, if you like it, use it.

I strongly dislike it. Too cutesy and twee. Like Poppet. And just one letter from Poopy.

It’s nice but it’s very popular

Not a fan.. there are 4 in my teen daughters school year.. she also knows 4 Evie s .. what about Leonie?

It’s hugely popular already. Generally always saddled with May/Rose/Grace on the end. It’ll definitely date if she’s yet another Poppy-Rose.

I’m not a fan personally as I think it’s a bit twee.

It's fine.
it works for all ages.

No I don't think so. I knew a Poppy at school, and it worked well on her when she was an older teenager. Can see it working very well on adult too.
