Hey everyone, i'm struggling to choose between Daisy or Lily.

Which do you like best?

User, no one on here said they personally couldn’t take Daisy seriously. Daisy will have to go out into society one day and society will react to that and all names based on previous interactions and stereotypes. You can try to change the world with your own kids’ names. Or is it that your name is Daisy?

Lily

Iwas please reread your own words. You wouldn’t want to be taken seriously, hence the name isn’t a serious name? Not personal, just tired of the Mumsnet ‘Please don’t name your child Eddie, please name him Sir Edward Von Trundle or he won’t be taken seriously in the big, wide world’

Daisy and Kitty and Lily and Tutti Frutti are all growing up together and likely will meet an abundance of people with pretty, ‘sweetie’ names. They’re not going to be interviewed by Sharon and Clive.

Don't like kitty at all

Lily, though not mad keen but dislike Daisy. Too infantile.

I love daisy- lily is a bit overdone in my opinion

Daisy.

Lily is so lovely but it is very very popular. My DCs school has almost one in every class and 3 in one class. It doesn't seem to be slowing down either. Current nursery has 2. I was fine with choosing a very popular name when I was pregnant as I loved it and chose it years ago but I admit I feel very differently now and wish I'd chosen something different.

I do like Lily, but all the ones I know are in their 20s and it must be going out of fashion soon. Daisy does sound fresher, but it's not as classic.
