Venus, Story, Ember or Apricot?

[Spaghetti0h]

Venus, Story, Ember or Apricot?
I've narrowed my name list down to these.
I want something a little different to the top 20 names if possible.
Middle name would be Jean.
Which is your favourite in order please or what do you think?
Tysm for the help x

Its a joke, right?

I've met someone called Cherry.

Apricot is similar to peaches as a name in that it's an absolute mad suggestion.

What's wrong with Amber?!

I know two people called Cherry. They're both Philipino

Clearly a joke post

Not a joke no need to be rude.

Why not just go with Jean?

How about Astoria nn Stori
Amber
Clementine

I know a couple of baby Amber's it's getting popular again

Story, Ember and Apricot, though useful nouns, don't make nice names. Venus is OK if you're a Roman goddess, but a bit much for a spotty self-concious teen from Birmingham (as a former spotty west midlands teen, I loathed the fact that my unusual-for-the-era name made me more noticeable than all the Rachels, Lisas and Nicolas and Emmas at school)

Too plain on its own?

Ember… if I have to.

Story? Sporky storky…. So much fun to be had there.
Venus… fly trap but it’s ok
Apricot - bum fruit, Ape, Banana, Peach, Apple. It’ll be a different fruit every day!

Not a fan sorry- but different strokes etc!

I know an Ember. It doesn't get confused with other names and it's a lovely name.
Apricot/Peaches is a hard no from me too. But agree that Cherry is somehow ok!

‘Story, bud?’ is a Dublin (male working class - will be flamed for that but it’s true!) greeting.

Cool. I have South Korean heritage. Love the Philippines.

Just dropping in the fact that Ember would have her own (sad and solemn) days, so that would rather put me off that name. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ember_days

My DS could never say Apricot.... he always says Apricock so that would be a no from me ( it's also not a name)

😂 ok I'm ruling that one out then seeing as everyone hates it.

@ChardonnaysPetDragon

it sounds like a litter of retriever puppies working in a strip bar.

I now want a short animated film about this. Venus is the raddled, experienced older mother hen (puppy) stripper, Apricot is the naive youngster just starting out, angst-ridden nerd stripper puppy Story secretly yearns to go to university, and Ember is the one with the big throaty bark who saves the club by turning it into a cabaret that takes in waifs and strays.

I love Ember, I think it's gorgeous. I quite like Story and Apricot too but would not be brave enough to use them. Venus is awful, waaaaay too much for a child to live up to. It'd be like calling a little boy Eros or Romeo or something like that, just too much pressure for most kids. Go with Ember, it's really nice.

Cherry is very cool, though a lot of scope for her to endure “pop your cherry” jokes in secondary school 😬

Some suggestions as your names seem quite nature based;
Autumn
Winter
Summer
March
January
Harlow (maybe not with jean!)
Brontë
Clementine
Dove
Prairie
Meadow
Sunny
Wren
Hero
Avalon
Linnea
Tamar
Aspen
Astor

Oh wow! 🥺

They are all ridiculous.

In the nicest possible way, as someone who has been laughed at and embarrassed by my name my whole life, please don't pick any of these.

Ember is nice. I loved a song called Embers Fire years ago by Paradise Lost.
