Dark chocolate, maybe some dark magenta, and a light, almost tooth-pastey blue-green.

It's green-yellow.I don't like it. It sounds like the name of a drug.

Yellow, obviously. It`s a daffodil.

Okay, I didn`t know it was a flower in English. Just that it`s also the French word for daffodil so that`s the first meaning in my mind.

I think it's really cool and it'd be nice to meet a Jonquil. I think of fresh, clean and rejuvenating lavender.

Turquoise, yellow and maroon. This name is full of pretty colors.

I think it's quite intriguing - makes a good mn for a springtime baby or to honour a John or Jonathan when none of the feminine John names will do.
I've got synaesthesia, seeing words and letters in colour - J names are usually orangey but although at first glance I see Jonquil like that the image of a soft yellow or white and yellow flower soon takes over.

Smoky maroonI quite like it as a middle name. My combo is Mary Adele Jonquil (with Mary Adele used as the first name). Very nice.

Canary yellow.It's kinda quirky. It's one of those names I'm on the fence about (and have been for a looong time. I just can't make up my mind about it, so it's stuck in limbo somewhere.)

I think it's all right, if a little mannish sounding for a flower name(maybe it's that Jon- beginning?). I think immediately of the plant, so it's yellow and white to me.

I think it's beautiful. It's a good name for a flower.

It is nice. Reminds me of the colour white and yellow like the flowers.
