What impression does this give? my surname rhymes with duck. Is it a no no? Alternatively, Nancy, Lucia, or Florence?

Daphne is beautiful!

All of your names are lovely- you have great taste!

I think some children with think of Scooby Doo but that's not really a bad association. The only disadvantage I can think if is that there is no obvious nickname.

none of the above

I like the name Daphne but yes, it's too similar to Daffy Duck with your surname.

I like Lucia and Florence but not keen on Nancy.
