Help[Opinions] Re: Tansy
in reply to a message by LizLavender
My biggest issue with this name is admittedly unfair, but it just comes across as rather insubstantial to me. I don't dislike it, but I see it as a nickname, or maybe a pet's name.
I feel the same way about Lily. I think Lily is a very pretty name, but for whatever reason I can't hear that name and not assume it's a nickname for something longer.
I do question the wisdom of naming a child after a poisonous plant, but that's just me. I'd rather see a baby named Tansy than a baby named Poison Ivy.
