willow?

[sophree]

My dp loves this name.
I love it to but think most people would hate it?
Honest opinion on willow ?

I love it!

I really like it. It sounds very graceful.

I really like it

It makes me think of the film with Warwick Davies but I doubt many people would associate it with that tbh.

It's a very pretty name!

I like it.

makes me think of buffy the vampire slayer.loved that show

Gorgeous and feminine but not too girlie.
Willow could be a CEO

I thinks it's so pretty! And a little bit hippy. I've got 30 weeks (ish) of pregnancy to convince my DP that if we have a little girl this is the name!!

Wish me luck!

Love it, very pretty!

I do love it but my worry with it is if the child is not very willowy. but I know this may be ridiculous

Lovely.

I love it too, if we find out we're having (another ) girl at the 20 week scan end of July, I'm putting my foot down and using it (dp's family will hate it!)

I have a Willow who is nearly 13. It's such a cool name and she is willowy so it suits her . I fell in love with it as soon as I read it in a baby name book . I get a bit annoyed that there are more around now due to pink and some tv presenters naming their daughters it !

I think it's a lovely name. I only know one Willow and she's not at all willowy, but it still suits her.

Very pretty, graceful name. It might not be to everyone's taste, but it's hardly an unheard-of choice nowadays, so I think people will be more open to it than you think. You'll never find a name everyone likes - might as well pick one you both love.

Lovely.

I love it :) My Willow is actually a cat!

I know a baby Willow, it's gorgeous!

Lovely name.

My Willow is DDog! And we are always coming across other dogs with the same name. I do love it though, I would say go for it if you like it.

Shrimp me too!

I do like it, though might be a bit of a burden for a non-willowy child/adult. Like being a clumsy Grace, or a miserable Felicity.

Love it. Only met one Willow in 29 years!

I once had a Willow in the crèche. The name on paper conjured up a small, lithe little girl. She was beyond chubby! A little character.

I love the name Willow. It's a gentle, beautiful name.

Sorry I hate it. There are a couple at DS school, I don't think it's quite as unusual as people like to think. It's a bit like 'Summer' or 'India' in my book. A bit wet and hippyish.
But your baby your choice.

I like it for girls, not for boys though.
