Avalon

Thoughts on this name?

What does it conjure up?

Does it feel masculine or feminine or both?

Sounds like an MLM

Arbonne
Avalon
Younique

Savalon

Roxy Music

It makes me think of Avon catalogues…but maybe that’s just me!

I think it's beautiful. I know a 6 year old one. Definitely a girl.

Awful. Imagine it in the park. Avalon, come here. Definitely attracting a few eye rolls

Sounds like it should be moisturiser to me.

I quite like it. Hippy 70s vibes. And I do love Roxy Music.

It conjures up Glastonbury hippy parents.

Much prefer Arthurian names such as Guinevere, Yseult, Arthur, Gawain, Merlin.

It's quite a nice name - I think it reminds me a bit of a washing powder brand or something, though. Not sure if that's quite what you're looking for?

Arthurian legend, quite hippyish. It's not awful, but I still don't think I'd use it as a baby name. I also don't think it would sound very nice in some accents e.g. south-east / London - a bit harsh, and like an 'H' had been dropped, but I may be overthinking!

It’s a place to me. Both a book and a movie have an Avalon in it.

You might get away with a girl but I’m not sure it would work for a boy

Love it - I'd had it on my boys list but DP vetoed

Roxy music. Name of parents house who love Roxy music lol

(mythical) place, not a person.

I know a 14yr old with that name. I think of her, and the beach:

My dogs vet practice.

@summerhillgang

I love the whole King Arthur mythology ❤️

So do I. It’s beautiful. Definitely a girl though

Sounds like a hand cream. Ava is nice, though very popular at the moment.

It's my hand cream in fact Avalon organic lemon.

i think of the island, not a name

This...

I live in Somerset so here it's the name of basically every local company. Avalon tyres, avalon motors, Avalon windows, Avalon storage etc etc etc etc. Not a good name!

I taught a lovely Avalon, who would be an adult now. She wore her name well.

I know a female Avalon. Shes 25 and beautiful. One of my favourite names. She gets called Lonnie for short occasionally but is mostly just Avalon
