Help[Opinions] also on Poppy...
in reply to a message by RoxStar
I know it may be odd, but I immediately think of opium and heroin, drugs that come from poppy. Maybe it is because someone in my family worked to bust narcotics, or that I know some people in recovery, but for me I equate the name Poppy with that, fair or not.

I have equated poppies with Remembrance Day ever since childhood and knew nothing of the flower's narcotic uses until I was older, so though I do connect them, it's not as strong... While I could see it used in honour of a WW2 vet in the family, I still wouldn't be inclined to use it on 1 of my own children... I do dislike Primrose more though. I think Primrose just sounds dumb.
