Ivory

[GoldBubbles]

Thoughts on Ivory?

It's a colour, not a name.

Sorry

Um. No. Not keen. Sorry. What about Ivy instead?

I think it's beautiful

Better for a girl than a boy, but I think it's pretty terrible either way.

Elephant as a nickname?

Makes me think of dead elephants

Well it sounds nice as a word but the ivory trade is horrible so I don't think it's a great association. What about Iris instead.

It's a nice sounding word but with bad connotations re ivory trade.

Maybe Iris instead?

Oops I thought my post was lost so I rewrote it!

It just doesn't sound namey.

Ebony or Ivy?

Oh :( I like it, that's a shame

I think of the phrase, 'tickling the ivories' and then of tusks in a sad way.

Yes, sad dead elephants. I wouldn't.

I wouldn't do Ivy either though.

Bad. Not AS bad as Ebony, but still bad.

Ivy is much better.

It sounds nice till you think about what it means.

Really not at all in good taste, sorry.

I think of "Ebony and Ivory" - the names of thousands of interracial lesbian couples according to porn.

I have a distant relative called Ivory. I think it's lovely!

Sorry dead elephant thoughts here too.

How about Avery?

No.
