I do like it and I also like clover itself Smile however it is a bit of a cow's name 😬

NapQueen · 06/07/2016 18:26

I like Clover! But it makes me want to sing the song off the advert.

lavenderpekins · 06/07/2016 18:26

Ooh that's true MsKite!

I like it. Sweet for a child but suits a mature adult also.

crje · 06/07/2016 18:27

It's a no from me.

It's more a pet name.

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 06/07/2016 18:29

It's a cow's name.
Sorry.

DavidPuddy · 06/07/2016 18:45

It's great. It immediately made me think of Clover from the What Katy Did stories and she is such a nice character.

TheRealAdaLovelace · 06/07/2016 18:47

it's a lovely name but I am afraid it does make me think of cows for some reason; although yes Clover Carr was very sweet.

plimsolls · 06/07/2016 18:47

I love this name. It doesn't go with surname otherwise I would have insisted we use it. I think it's great.

Tiggeryoubastard · 06/07/2016 18:48

Definitely a cows name. Sister of buttercup.

sonlypuppyfat · 06/07/2016 18:48

No just no, as someone has already said it's a pets name

Elllicam · 06/07/2016 18:48

I love it :)

Lunar1 · 06/07/2016 18:49

I love it, for a pet cow.

thundercake · 06/07/2016 18:50

I like it, and I've no preconceptions about it. Never met a cow called clover!

ExitPursuedByABear · 06/07/2016 18:51

It's a lovely name.

beenaroundawhile · 06/07/2016 18:52

I rode a horse called clover for years, she was lovely. Very dependable, strong, gentle yet strong willed, if anything rather on the dull side. I wouldn't use for a child.

Mycraneisfixed · 06/07/2016 18:52

I love the name but maybe as a middle name?

Moo

Agadooo · 06/07/2016 18:54

Have to agree about it making me think of butter or cows

fruityb · 06/07/2016 18:57

Watership Down is all I can think of but then I do also think it's quite sweet.

puffinpants · 06/07/2016 19:00

Makes me think of margarine I'm afraid. However, I can see it working- just be aware that every kid will make the association with buttery spread.

Wolfiefan · 06/07/2016 19:00

Dog off This Morning
Butter substitute.
No. Not Clover!

Ilovewillow · 06/07/2016 19:02

Adorable name!

Pipilangstrumpf · 06/07/2016 19:04

Not a very feminine name imo
