Oscar and Poppy???

[Emzzy26x]

These are the names me and my OH have decided on dependant on gender ovbs hahaha! Just wondering what you guys think??? One minute im set on thesr then I want tk change my mind! One indecisive mummy to be hahaha

As a combo I'm afraid I'd expect them to refer to pets (Oscar would be the dog and Poppy the cat).

Oscar is very fashionable and may date badly when it falls out of fashion. I prefer more timeless names.

Poppy is a cute nickname for a baby/little girl but I'm not that keen on it for a teenager or adult. Too cutesy for me. How about Penelope?

Both nice names but very 'in' at the mo. Dd is 4 and there are three Poppys in her preschool class.

I like both but I wouldn't use Oscar at the moment, imagine in 7 years when he googles (or whatever we have then) his name and what was happening when he was born? A certain South African trial will be ending soon.

Oscar is nice. Poppy is a flimsy name.

Both will date. Poppy is sweet, oscar is bleugh.

Dd2 was nearly poppy. She would have been Phillippa

Phillippa on her birth certificate but called poppy at home. I didn't think I'd want to do my job with a cutesy name so we thought we would give her the option.

Went for something different at last minute though!

Poppy is sweet and charming, and poppies are fantastic flowers, but if your daughter wants a career in Europe at any time in the future, a formal birth certificate name as well as a 'home' nickname Poppy might be helpful. Words sounding just like Poppy mean 'dolly' in French and Dutch.

I like Poppy. I don't really like Oscar though.

I know an oscar and poppy, siblings. They go well together!

I dislike both (probably equally). You can't please everybody.

Both lovely, however they make you sound like you are married to Michael Macintyre.
