[Opinions] Azure
What do you think of Azure as a name for a girl? To me, it sounds hippie-chic. I kind of like the sound of it (one of my favourite authors, Louise Erdrich, used this name for her youngest daughter a while back) but I worry that it sounds too silly. Any thoughts?

I like it a lotI love many color names, like Scarlett, obviously (and yes, I know the color name is Scarlet and the surname name is Scarlett but the TT spelling is more common and I did not want my daughter to have to correct people her whole life, but she IS named for the color red, regardless), but also Emerald, Violet, Sapphire, Indigo, Jade, Crimson, Grey, Lavender, etc. So I think Azure is very beautiful as well. Partly just for the color it names, a gorgeous shade of blue. I do NOT think it sounds silly!:D~Lillian~

It's been on my names list for quite a while.
I like it, it's simple, short.
and it has a nice sound to it, for me.

I like it, but if the child didn't have blue eyes it would be like naming a blonde Scarlett.

Ever heard of Scarlett Johansson?What on Earth would be wrong with naming a blonde Scarlett? Why does an Azure have to have blue eyes? That's a little silly.~Lillian~

Especially as both hair and eye colour can change with age- I was born with red hair and I'm now naturally a blonde. WhenI was little, my eyes were very blue, and although they're still blue now, they're a very dark blue, almost green.
