Angelica. The others sound like cows.

Doilooklikeatourist · 26/05/2018 21:34

Angelica

Mamaryllis · 26/05/2018 21:34

I know a Meadow who is lovely. Don’t care for Blossom or Clover (sound like part of a dairy herd). Angelica is too Rugrats.

Brendatheblender · 26/05/2018 21:34

Angelica.

The rest aren’t really names.

A friend named her DD Meadow and I still can’t warm to it 3 years down the line.

Aprilmightbemynewname · 26/05/2018 21:34

Are you a farmer op??

FaultySpice · 26/05/2018 21:35

Clover. Pretty but not popular.

MaybeBabey · 26/05/2018 21:35

Angelica.

I'm not too fond of Clover and Meadow but they're 'ok' imo.

Blossom is a bit of a "cow's name"...

French2019 · 26/05/2018 21:35

None of the above.

lljkk · 26/05/2018 21:35

I'm ok with Meadow. Clover makes me wince & Blossom not hugely better. Angelica is ok but probably will be v. popular soon.

DramaAlpaca · 26/05/2018 21:37

If I had to pick one it would be Angelica.

PPs have said it already above, but the others really are a bit bovine.

ILikeMyChickenFried · 26/05/2018 21:38

Angelina is the only one which doesn't seem more suited to a pet cow. Sorry.

DailyMailFail101 · 26/05/2018 21:39

Clover reminds me of the Cheapy butter spread. I agree with others Meadow and Blossom sound like a couple of cows, so it would have to be Angelica but I’m not overly keen.

Ohyesiam · 26/05/2018 21:39

My dream pony was called Clover when I was 8!
Angelica is a good name for a person, the rest would work
For pets/ livestock.

vampirethriller · 26/05/2018 21:40

I know an Angelica, she gets called Angie, it suits her. The others are animals names sorry...

lottiegarbanzo · 26/05/2018 21:41

Angelica.

How about something like Sorrel or Briony?

Clodagh is lovely, rather than Clover.

KavvLar · 26/05/2018 21:44

Angelica. Or maybe Evangeline?

applecatchers36 · 26/05/2018 21:45

Sound like cows names not keen

MaybeBabey · 26/05/2018 21:47

Blossom is / was also the name of some record breaking cow, I believe... Tallest? Heaviest?

You might like Flora.

Namechange128 · 26/05/2018 21:51

Angelica. Or quite like Clover. Rest definitely cows.

Flora and Evangeline also nice suggestions here, or would you consider other flower names like Violet, Iris or Daphne?

CopONNotLinkedIn · 26/05/2018 21:52

Clover
I like Angel but Angelica is a bit Angelina ballerina. Too long.
Meadow is ok, sounds like a fabric softener.
What was the other one.

Blossom, omg, no no no.

daisypond · 26/05/2018 21:56

Probably Angelica but it's a bit frilly. I could maybe come round to Clover, though I really don't like small plants that get trodden on underfoot as names for girls. There's a Clover in What Katy Did, which gives it a bit more provenance and oomph. Meadow is a new one for me. Maybe in a hippyish sort of way it's OK. I'm really not keen on Blossom. It just sounds ugly.

Blossom. I think its prettiest. Meadow is just a bit too out there... Clover is pretty but its the butter... Angelica reminds me of the character from rugrats.

MrsCD67 · 26/05/2018 22:41

Clover is lovely and if other people didn't hate it so much, I'd name my DD that!

ellalouise90 · 26/05/2018 22:45

My unborn daughter was going to be called Blossom 😍💖 we have gone for Delilah though! Ignore what everyone says about it being a 'animal name' or any shit like that it is a beautiful name 💖💖💖💖💖 BLOSSOM ALL THE WAY😍😍😍
