Yes I do. Don’t usually like flower names, but I do like this one.

No, I don't. Simply because it reminds me of Iggy Azalea and Azalea Banks, and neither of those people are particularly positive associations.

What Super said.

However, I love Azaria and would use it if I didn’t live in Australia.

thats a good point, i wouldn't want people to think i chose it because of a celebrity

Yes, I like it!

Azalea banks is a really vile person so I wouldn’t want it to be associated with her. Shame as it’s a pretty name

It’s a beautiful name - use it.

Forget about the celebrity connections - I’m sure that they’ll be nobodies in a few years, and other vacuous people will have taken their place.

If I loved the names Donald or Nigel (I don’t by the way!), I would use them, and wouldn’t allow the Trump and Farage connection to put me off.

I don't like it. Azalea flowers are lovely but I don't like the sound of the word and I wouldn't choose it for my child. Sorry.
