Terrible name, sorry OP.

HJ40 · 01/01/2024 10:15

Cows.

There are loads of other beautiful plant names though.

Dogs name

I'd put Clover and Buttercup in a different category to other flowers, as they are more ground cover that cows eat. Daisies can be the white field type but can also be big colourful garden flowers.

I know a toddler Clover, I think it's lovely.

LefthandRight · 01/01/2024 10:18

What about Meadow

Kalevala · 01/01/2024 10:20

Vetch? 😁

OverTheGrip · 01/01/2024 10:21

I don’t like it.

EnjoyingTheSilence · 01/01/2024 10:24

I know a Clover. Lovely girl, as far as I know she’s never any of these kind of comments. If you like it, go for it

apronbellybarbie · 01/01/2024 10:25

It makes me think of butter or a farm. Sorry OP.

What about Cleo? Chloe?

BritishDesiGirl · 01/01/2024 10:27

Animal Farm immediately springs to mind

I also imagine she will get lots of butter related jokes

Or you could just pick a normal, human name for your daughter.

Love the name Clover! Like someone else said, reminds me of What Katy Did. I think it’s lovely and nature-y without being too weird or pretentious.

Oreosareawful · 01/01/2024 10:30

Nope. I thought of rabbits. But it’s definitely a cow name.

whatausername · 01/01/2024 10:46

Overwhelming image that springs to mind.

What do you think of Clover?

Loved it in "What Katy Did" but my mind goes to that after it's seen a big yellow tub of sunflower spread now!!

tinytemper66 · 01/01/2024 10:49

Oh no. Please don't.

Runninghappy · 01/01/2024 10:50

We have a rabbit called clover!

twilightcafe · 01/01/2024 10:51

Mooooo!

No

kitsuneghost · 01/01/2024 11:04

Finlesswonder · 01/01/2024 11:06

Great idea, you could call any follow up DDs Mable and Bluebell

flexigirl · 01/01/2024 11:07

I prefer lurpak personally

Mumofgirls2017 · 01/01/2024 11:15

I absolutely love it!

Iseeall · 01/01/2024 11:15

I love it, but im another fan of the 'what Katy did' books.
Don't be put off by the cow or butter references.
