[Opinions] Firefly
Don't worry, it's a GP. What do you think? Could it ever work?

Take my love, take my land, take me where I cannot stand!Sorry, couldn't help myself :PI am a diehard Firefly (tv show) fan, but I have curiously never thought about it as a name until now. It's definitely a GP, but I wouldn't mind using it as a middle name (I'd combine it with a more conventional first name so the kid has a choice).Or maybe I'd use it as a first name because I aim to misbehave ;)

I absolutely adore Firefly! (the tv show)I would name a dog Firefly. I would use it as a middle name in a heartbeat. It's awesome. Their mention of Zelda Firefly is stuck in my head.Browncoats unite!

Hey I think it's more workable than Carousel, one of my wilder ideas :)I like it. It's definitely got a hippy vibe, but it's fresher than something like Rainbow or Butterfly. I'd pair it with something really serious, like Firefly Bartholomew or Firefly Gertrude.

Sounds tacky IMO.

Nope. Reminds me of Rufus T Firefly of Groucho Marx fame.

I've thought about Firefly as a GP myself. It's so cute, isn't it? I don't think it would ever work in real life, though. Maybe as a middle name, but even then it's rather out-there. Still, I really like it as a GP.

This name is so sexay, I want to lay it down and have it impregnate me. OMG I LOVE IT SO MUCH.

For some reason, I knew you'd be the only one who liked it.

I like it too, but definitely only as a GP. However, you should be warned that my vote might not count, because, a) I like GP names like Land and, b) I'm a nerdy sci-fi Firefly-the-television-show fan.

I had thought of the show. I don't watch it, but I know it exists.I think it makes a better GP middle name, but what would the first name be? Any ideas?

It seems silly as a name to me.

What's that Ogden Nash poem ... something about "I can think of nothing eerier Than having an unidentified light shining out of a person's posterior"?So my associations are not very positive! Though the unidentified light in question, where I live anyway, is pale green and very beautiful!

Maybe in the middle. Up front, even I think it's silly. It's kind of cute, though.

Nah...only makes me think of fireflies going: "Oooh, what's that nice shiny thing up there...wow, it's like the sun! Is it the sun? Wow, gonna fly a little clo"...ZAP

It's fine as a GP, but it would be hideous on a real kiddo.

It's not a very bright choice.
It really bugs me.
It'll never fly.
