Is it a hard name to pull off ? Personally I can see a quieter, less strong-willed character carrying the name fine but wanted some second thoughts. We love it and Clo, Cloves etc, also think it's fine on an adult so looking more on how the name works in real life as opposed to general love hate comments on it

This is another one of those names that you either love or you hate, but I love it. It's unique and different without being too "out there". I think I'd be too scared to use it on my own child, but I do like it a lot.

P.S. My username doesn't really have any significance, it was just a random name I thought of, so I'm not biased lol

It's sweet!
I can see her in a gingham dress.

It's actually quite pretty but I'll bet she'd end up with the nickname Marge

Maybe cute for a little tot but certainly not as a grown adult. Margarine

It's a cow name, but then so is Daisy, and it manages to be popular, so maybe it would be okay. I do like the name.

I’ve loved it ever since reading ‘Why Katy Did’ as a child. Definite marmite name though! For me it has a warm, sunny feel and make me think of someone creative and artistic - though not ‘quiet’ necessarily.

I like it. I don’t think of someone quiet at all. It has the same vibe as Daisy, more or less, to me.

Umnoway · 01/05/2020 17:51

Makes me think of the margarine and the advert in the noughties- ‘we all love clover, it’s the way that it’s churned’.

I like it. Reminds me of Watership Down firstly.
I cant imagine it on a fiery child though, it's the sort of name that could really not suit someone. I'd give her a more mainstream option for a middle name.

I think it’s lovely and preferable to Daisy, actually.

Whether quiet or outgoing, I think she'll need to be quite confident.
