What do you think of the name Lushe as my baby daughter's name?

What do you think of the name Lushe (silent e) as my baby daughter's name? Plenty of people have the surname Lush so why not have it as a first name? I already have a daughter called Harlowe which caused uproar with the family but has been received well in nursery but I need something just as unusual for my new arrival due in January. This is my first post so please be nice to me...

I knew a little girl called Keva (pronounced Cavah) always thought it was lovely.

I think the poster Lushe is winding you up!

JustFabulous · 03/01/2013 19:40

Baby due this month. I don't think adding to it is that ridiculous.

cuillereasoupe · 04/01/2013 19:37

It has to be Clarissa, surely?

Ellypoo · 04/01/2013 19:51

Not keen, personally.

Struggling as I like old fashioned names !!

I think you have to do the prime minister test though- could there be a pm Lushe ( I know Barrack has scuppered this test though!!)

its not a name i would choose. i used to teach a little girl called Bliss? what do u think of that? again not for me but she was a gorgeous little thing.

Pinkflipflop · 06/01/2013 04:13

It's a horrendous name! Don't do it! I'm from Northern Ireland and over here we also use the term 'lush' to refer to someone who likes a drink!!

Hi everyone, just thought I would update u all, our baby girl was born on New Year's Eve, weighing 7lb 1oz and we named her Lilah (pronounced Lie-lah), she is beautiful and I think her name is beautiful too. I'm sure there will be a few of u who do not like it but I just thought I would let u all know that we didn't choose Lushe and never will. Thanks for all your help in the end.

Do you pronounce it Louche? Not good! Sounds bit like douche too.
