[Opinions] Re: Jonquil
in reply to a message by Arcadia
It's absolutely gorgeous - no?
It's not my real name, but I knew a Jonquil when I was a student, the only Jonquil I've ever known or even heard of. She was petite, brunette, and - in contrast to the jeans and sweater set - always very fashionable from head to toe, and her name (and the sophisticated image she presented) have always stuck in my mind. The name intrigued me. I thought it would be suitable for a baby born on the cusp of winter/spring as the pretty jonquil flowers are blooming. Also, it could "honour" a grandparent called Jon/John.
