Is Poppy really that common?

[Nearlyherenotlong]

Really like the name Poppy but is it really blah and boring/common?

I love Poppy, in 15 years I haven’t taught one and I don’t know one at my dcs school

I know a few. Oddly, I know 3 who also have a sister called Holly. I think it's a law maybe.

It's a twee, girly, cutesy name and I think will stand out as of this time along with the army of Ella, Ellie, Ava, Millie type names. It is to this time period as Claire, Sarah and Victoria are to my childhood.

My eldest DD is poppy and is 13. All the way through infants and juniors there wasn't another Poppy (it's not a tiny school 2 classes per year in juniors 3 in infants). Now in secondary there are 3 poppy's including her in her year group of over 700.
You will meet cats and dogs called Poppy but on my Rd there's dogs called Johnny, Izzy, Ben and Rachel!
If you like it use it.

I only know one, age 5. Its a pretty name.

I know 4. Two 5/6 year olds and two dogs. Definitely a good dog name.

I know a few, one is mine. I had no idea it was popular when I picked it, I just really liked it and still do. DF hated it but it's not up to him, DH and I both liked it so that was that.

I know 4, all under 4.

I know 2 so not overly common. I don't like it personally, makes me think of the link with opium poppies.

I live in NW England and I know quite a few. One is 14 but all the rest are under 8.

It is pretty. Each of my children have one or two in their year at school. Not quite as popular around here as Isabella, Alice and Phoebe I don't think.

I know 2, a 3 year old and a 2 year old. And one cat!

I personally know 3; one border collie, one cocker spaniel and one jack russell.

4 in our primary school so I would say common.

I love it but i only know dogs with the name !

DD 19 went to school with a Poppy
That's the only one I've Personally came across.
However I've met a lot of dogs and a cat called Poppy.
It's still a lovely name and one I'd definitely
consider.

I don't know any
I've worked with children for 25 years and never come across one

Teaching 10 years and never come across a poppy.

Lovely name.

I like it. I know two in their early 20s.

Not keen at all.
I wouldn't want to be a 30 yr old Poppy.
Cute on a baby but not on an adult.

I know three Poppy’s all three are spoilt brats demanding and attention seeking.

I know 2 girls and a dog!

Plant based names just don't stand the tests, Poppy is a no here,

1 dog, 1 cat, 1 adult and 1 child. Suited the adult much less well than the others.

I know an adult Poppy and it works for her.
