Are these names too marmite?

[Zogsyoungersister]

Trying to pick a girls name and here's the shortlist... I know a few of these some people either love or hate. I don't want to pick something too of the moment but I don't want something boring either... which would you pick? I have a son with a very classic name... Happy for other suggestions too.

Cleo
Jemima
Astrid
Blossom
Tulip
Agnes
Lavender
Celine

Agnes is the only one I like but I don't think any of them are too out there. I would probably avoid Blossom if your son has a classic name as would be a bit too different.

I love Cleo & Celine.

Agnes, Jemima & Astrid are OK but not really my cup of tea.

I really dislike all three of those flower names, especially Blossom.

Cleo- no
Jemima- this one is getting popular, but I think it’s only being used because all the previously higher society names have become popular, so people are looking elsewhere.
Astrid- don’t like
Blossom- too hippy
Tulip- hasn’t caught on yet
Agnes- still old lady to me
Lavender- I see potential in this name to be the new “Violet”
Celine- I like this name

I didn’t mention that I like Lavender. Nice meaning, and nice sound

Cleo
Jemima
Agnes
Nice names

Astrid- no
Blossom- I cringe saying it
Tulip
Lavender
I don't like

How do you pronounce Celine?

Not Marmite, I like Astrid best.

Not the flower ones. How about Marguerite for a flower name?

Does marguerite sound a bit Spanish though?? We're very pasty

None of the flower ones, and I find Agnes very ugly. (It's the Ag bit. Inez is nice.) I like the rest of your list.

I absolutely love:

Cleo
Jemima
Astrid

and Celine is fine, but reminds me of Celine Dion.

Not a fan of the others.

I like only Cleo.

I love all of the names you've chosen except lavender as don't feel it's a real name but really like all the rest, better than more Graces, Emily's or Amelia's

Love Jemima but not keen on the rest

Cleo
Astrid

Imogen

Alice?

Cleo - no
Jemima - beautiful
Astrid - love it
Blossom - no
Tulip - no
Agnes - lovely
Lavender - no
Celine - gorgeous

Ok so so far everyone hates Blossom but there's a spread about the rest...

I like Alice but it goes badly with surname. Imogen I should like but don't. I find it a bit harsh?

Is Jemima getting popular??
Does Cleo seem too much like all the other four letter names that are super popular at the moment?
Would Lavender get shorted to Lav?

Celine or Jemima

Have you thought of Cliona. Clio as a non?

I like them all. I'm not keen on lavender as it would be 'lav' or 'Lavvy'

Stupid auto correct. Clio as a nick name I meant to say.

What about Lavinia?

I’ll be honest my only dealings with it are from Jilly Cooper, but it seems like it would fit.

Not keen on Blossom, Tulip, Agnes or Lavender tbh. Though if you like them my opinion really doesn't matter x

No to blossom and tulip from me, others are nice though.

I love Cleo, Jemima and Astrid. I don’t mind Lavender and Celine, don’t like Agnes, Blossom or Tulip.

Agnes seems to have become bizarrely fashionable and I really can’t understand. It’s my least favourite of all your names and it’s one of the more ‘normal’ ones!
