Correct.

MissPerception · 14/10/2012 15:44

Blooming stupid infact.

Gwennan · 14/10/2012 15:44

Dreadful.

TheMightyMojoceratops · 14/10/2012 15:44

Bloom, no. Blossom, perhaps?

MacMac123 · 14/10/2012 15:45

Blossom is a nice name.
(bloom is silly yes)

VerityClinch · 14/10/2012 15:46

My friend's surname is Bloom. If she called her DD Bloom I would certainly PMSL.

LilyCocoplatt · 14/10/2012 16:35

Yep it is silly, makes me think of Mr Bloom.

HolyAutumnGoldBatman · 14/10/2012 18:19

no, it's not a girls name. It's a word, but not a name.

JennaLemon · 14/10/2012 18:34

I'd be afraid it could be a sanitary towel or an air freshener or a fabric softener one day. It really has that vibe about it.

Makes me think of "algal bloom" which is where algae grow all over a river and make it look green and sludgy.

DontmindifIdo · 14/10/2012 18:41

makes me think of Mr Bloom from Cbeebies.

squoosh · 14/10/2012 18:45

Bloom? Awful, it sounds very flabby.

Name of a character in winx club (cartoon aimed at 6yr old girls)

Leeds2 · 14/10/2012 19:30

wannabedomesticgoddess · 14/10/2012 19:32

Judy Blooms Blubber was the first thing to come to mind Hmm

Blossom is nice though.

PickledFanjoCat · 14/10/2012 19:32

Totally silly as a sausage.

BigWitchLegsInWailyTights · 14/10/2012 19:37

Bloomin Heck.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 14/10/2012 19:38

Oh please don't.

Gugglebum · 14/10/2012 20:21

I'd say if you're in love with it, put it in the middle spot. I can't see it working as a first name...

MoelFammau · 14/10/2012 23:13

Bloomers...

Littlesurprise · 15/10/2012 09:58

Not just ridiculous... Social Services ridiculous.

Iheartpasties · 15/10/2012 09:59

Blossom is much nicer
