What does Daphne make you think of?

[MamaLazarou]

Daphne du Maurier?

The red haired girl from Scooby Doo?

Daphne and Des from Neighbours?

Scooby Doo, and a Daphne at work nicknamed Colonel G'Daphne!

I live in France and am totally immersed in Baroque esthetics. (Alright, I should get a life, right?) Daphne makes me think of all those wonderful seventeenth-century operas which took mythological characters and storylines. In fact my early music teacher's youngest daughter (3 yrs old) is called Daphne and she's quite something!

Aphids and Scooby Doo.

Nice name though.

neighbours, but i actually love this name

This is random I know, but for some reason the name Daphne conjures up a 1940's wartime pretty young lady with red lipstick and that 40's hairdo like Kate Beckinsale's character in Pearl Harbour.

Anyway, I love the name Daphne. It's sweet, elegant, different. I put it in the same "old fashioned yet with modern charm" bracket as Phoebe and Margot.

I think of a lovely teaching assistant who worked at my school who'd do anything for you with a smile. She is now retired .

my beautiful delicious dd who's one- ya boo sucks to you granny23...love the name, and greek mythological connection ( liked phoebe but soooooooooooooooooo many of them now) but mostly because it was relatively unused, so should probably put you off really, its horrid and everyone ridicules her..
( also, had a daphne planted for her naming day, very pretty pink and white flowers)

old ladies and a sweetly scented flower

My dog, the cutest dog you have ever seen.

I actually named her after Daphne Broon, but liked the name as it is common here in French speaking Switzerland so the DC's friends can pronounce it correctly.

Neighbours, but not necessarily a bad thing?!

there's an old lady in my choir called Daphne.

it's an old lady name.

A 1930's schoolgirl -the 'jolly hockey sticks' type.

Neighbours.

Read the title and immediately thought.......

Yes Neighbours

Glad to see i'm not the only saddo around

Mrstittlemouse - how old are you???

I am still in my 20's (just) and remember the neighbours

1. Bush
2. Scooby Doo
3. Neighbours
4. Know it all off Eggheads

Those were my thoughts. Clearly I watch too much telly.

I only learnt about Daphne the flower yesterday because someone had brought some in for my dd's teacher. Ther smell was gorgeous.
