Bluestocking · 07/01/2012 18:46

NOOOO!! Giant flicky fringes is all I can see.

diddl · 07/01/2012 18:55

Not for me.

Lara?

JestersHat · 07/01/2012 19:27

Fawcett or slacks.

It's a Persian name, isn't it?

I think it's lovely, but do strongly associate it with Fawcett-Majors (I think there's a whole generation, especially of men, who would make that association).

If you're Persian/near Eastern it's lovely.
If you're Whitey McWhiterson, then it's all flicked fringes to me, sorry.

oikopolis · 09/01/2012 00:06

Ditto any other ethnicity! To me it's one of those names that only works if you're actually of the culture it originates from.

what oikopolis said.

SubordinateClaws · 09/01/2012 02:32

How about Childshape?

boyfallingoutofthesky · 09/01/2012 06:41

I think it is nice, don't have any recollection of Farrah Fawcett really (think I missed that one) so doubt the next generation will. I would be careful with names from other cultures but I think this one works ok, and is no worse than Leila for example which is very popular for all ethnicities at moment.

Sluttybuttons · 09/01/2012 06:43

I like it

Littlepurpleprincess · 09/01/2012 20:08

I like it.

umiaisha · 09/01/2012 20:46

SIL is a Farah and I really like it.

She is of middle eastern origin though.

blushingm · 09/01/2012 22:29
