Saffron - honestly, poncey and naff or not?

[CBear6]

We haven't found out the sex yet, that's in April but we want to pick names ready like we did when I was pregnant with DS so we can call it by it's name instead of Peanut, which is the moniker it currently goes by.

DH mentioned Saffron last night for a girl and I sort of like it but I'm in two minds about whether it's poncey and a but naff. Ghosts of Ab Fab are hauntin me "saffy darling, saffs, saffy ... "

Honest opinions?

I like it. Nothing wrong with Saffy.

"It's different" says 11yo DS (a girl called Saffron briefly had a crush on him). The Saffron DS knows has a builder father and a motor-bike chick for a mother, so not poncey at all!

I like it. FWIW it makes me think of the Donovan song, not Ab Fab, which is a much nicer association

i like it, doesnt sound poncey to me, sounds pretty

never watched ab fab
and i would doubt the ab fab link would even be thought of in years to come

Naff

It's s nice name, my niece is saffron know as saff.

I don't like it, but that is just me.

No, don't like it - it is a spice. Why not use nutmeg or clove .

No, don't do it.

My dd2 is Saffron (we are no way near being poncy, in fact we live in a council house and are skint).

She gets called 'Saff' and 'Saffy'

I think its a great name

I know a saffron, nn saff and she's in her 20's. Never heard of it before that.
But then she does have a sister called Tulip and a brother called Keanen.
