I adored this name when I was little, but the appeal wore off a few years ago. It sounded too frilly and I preferred
Florence,
Florrie,
Fleur,
Flo. However, recently it's started to grow on me again. It's cute and vintage and, well, floral, and I'd like to see it on a child today.
LISTEN TO THE MUSTN'TS
-
Shel Silverstein
Listen to the MUSTN'TS, child,
Listen to the DON'TS
Listen to the SHOULDN'TS
The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON'TS
Listen to the NEVER HAVES
Then listen close to me—
Anything can happen, child,
ANYTHING can be.
