Help[Opinions] Re: Willow?
in reply to a message by Laurasaurus
Willow Melissa is pretty, but Melissa Willow speaks to me more.
Willow is one of the few names that I find to be completely unisex. It does well on a girl, but there's also strong masculine overtones to it - there's the fantasy movie Willow, and I know a few Williams whose nickname is the homophone "Willo".
Personally I wouldn't use Willow because it's a bit too cutely naturey for me, but I don't mind seeing it on other peoples' children.
The tree you're thinking of is the weeping willow, and they are indeed one of the most gorgeous trees ever. My grandparents have a creek running through their property with weeping willows all around it, and it's lovely.
