I like the name primrose but would like to see what others think?

I also like the face could have the nick names Prim & Rosie

:)

I find that starting with "prim" is off putting.

How about Marigold?

I think of Brambley Hedge too... And 'prim' has a horrible meaning so probably not that great a nickname. Sorry... However, I'm a great believer in using a name you love so go for it if you do!! (By the way, I love Rose - it's often a middle name and rarely a first name around us...)

I love it. I would use Rose over Prim for short.

LOVE LOVE LOVE my favorite name ever, unfortunately dh is less keen. Sad

I love it OP. Sadly, like a PP I too have a DH who thinks it awful. I did overrule him on the name last time though....

It was Bob Wilson the footballer's middle name.

I think it's beautiful

perrinelli · 01/12/2014 08:40

Sounds bovine to me

LordJabuJabu · 01/12/2014 08:50

Cow name for me too (along with daisy & marigold)!

furcoatbigknickers · 01/12/2014 08:54

Love it. Don't line Rosie as nn Rose besutiful

ThinkIveBeenHacked · 01/12/2014 08:56

I just think of Primrose Everdeen. Which makes me think of the third Hunger Games book. So I couldnt do it (even though I am a massive HG fan).

I think it's a lovely pretty name.

lloydlf33 · 01/12/2014 19:50

I like it and would use Posy as a shortening

justhayley · 02/12/2014 00:00

I LOVE it

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 02/12/2014 00:07

Mrs Shipman. Sorry.

fattycow · 02/12/2014 09:40

Hunger Games for me.
