Blossom

[AndBeholdAWhiteHorse]

No idea if I'm having a boy or a girl but I've bounced a few names round with people and mainly my mum. Well I was listening to the radio and the Blossoms were on and I really like the name Blossom so told mum and the first thing she said is it reminds her of a cow called Blossom. Wtf! What are others views on this name?

I wouldn't, think about if it would suit your child still as an adult.

Terrible 90s American TV show. I think it's a bit twee to be honest, and it might be cute on a toddler, but imagine a 30 year old, or 50 year old - it doesn't age well

Daft name for a person, fine for a Cow, Rabbit or Donkey.

Sorry, not keen. My thoughts instantly went to The Power Puff Girls.

I'm with your mum. It's lovely on a cow, ghastly on a person. And will possibly get misheard as Bottom. Not good.

See this is why I should always trust my mum! Blossom the cow it is and not suitable for a child. Thank you all back to the traditional name game again.

It's not a name that will grow with your child.

I like it, but think it might be more suited to a middle name - it's a bit cutsie for a teen/adult.

Awful. Cow.

I actually like it. Does remind of the Powerpuff Girls though.

Fine as a middle name.

I like Blossom and Bliss. Sadly not for real life but I can day dream.

I really like it. Reminds me of the 90s TV show!

I like it too but I know I am in the minority. Middle name though for sure.

Reminds of the TV show. The actress who played her is cool though! I think it was also the name of someone’s grandma in Eastenders.

It's terrible. Utterly mimsy.

Well, I was going to say horse, but cow fits too

I like it a lot

Blossom!? For a human child? Just no.

Noooo!

Although DP has an aunt who changed her name to Blossom in her 40s and now insists people call her by the hideous nn ‘Blossie’ (not envy!)

Cringe.

No. I've not heard 'Drop 'em Blossom' for years but your post made me think of it!

I love it but I honestly cant imagine ever using it. Maybe a middle name

Too ponyish.

Fighting crime, try-Ing To Save The World
Just in time we are The Power Puff Girls

POWER PUFF!!

I only watched it for Professor Utonium. Phwoar!
