I am starting to really like Meadow. Is it too much or do you think it would be a nice name for a girl ?

too much

GobbolinoTheWitchesCat · 29/09/2022 14:22

Love it

ChildrenOfTheQuorn · 29/09/2022 14:28

I know two Meadows... definitely increasing in popularity.

SatinHeart · 29/09/2022 14:29

I actually quite like it for a little one but tbh I'm struggling to picture it on an adult.

HebeSunshine · 29/09/2022 14:34

I think it sounds nice.

JadeSeahorse · 29/09/2022 14:38

Lovely!!

Keroppi · 29/09/2022 14:39

Cute! Not sure about when theyre older, though. Makes me think of the daughter from Sopranos.

lizziesiddal79 · 29/09/2022 14:39

I hear ‘Meadow’, I hear ‘Soprano’.

spiderlight · 29/09/2022 14:45

I like it! It has a lovely gentle feel to it.

MadeForThis · 29/09/2022 14:47

Soprano

MonkeyPuddle · 29/09/2022 14:49

I find it a bit too cutesy.

DrDetriment · 29/09/2022 14:53

Too cutesy. Plus a meadow is a field. Bit of an odd choice.

SirChenjins · 29/09/2022 14:53

Too twee - it’s this year’s Summer

emmathedilemma · 29/09/2022 15:07

Too much but then I my perception might be skewed by living in a city where the big green space that everyone goes to run / picnic / play tennis in etc is called The Meadows!

milawops · 29/09/2022 15:09

I know a meadow. She's 12 now and the whole family calls her field. Started out as a stupid joke but unfortunately for her it's stuck.

lickenchugget · 29/09/2022 15:09

Nah, far too twee.

This! Rewatching currently

riotlady · 29/09/2022 15:14

I love it! But I am a bit of a hippy at heart

And Summer has become a settled, uncontroversial name, for the most part.

Belladonnamama · 29/09/2022 15:45

I like nature names but can't get on board with Meadow. It reminds me of cows,sorry.

chineapplepunks · 29/09/2022 15:46

Love it!! Wanted it for my DD but our last name begins with O so it was too much of the O sound!

Show quote history

I didn’t say it was unsettled or controversial.

Yup. I was brought up on a farm and it makes me think of cowpats.

Sorry.

Sopranos.

Sorry, not keen - in the Savannah, Summer, Ocean group.
