Help[Opinions] Re: Phoebe, Ruby, Sadie, Ella or Poppy?
in reply to a message by Amandine
I like Phoebe. It's captivating and effervescent, and reminds me of shepherdesses lying in meadows bathed by the moonlight.
I don't like Ruby at all, or any gem names, for that matter (for girls - I like Jasper for a boy). I imagine a Ruby to be childish and mischievous. It reminds me of word "rube", ie country bumpkin.
I don't like Sadie either. Sarah is boring, but serious and respectable - Sadie lacks these qualities
Ella is sweet, if not particularly exciting. It's fun and jazzy, like a flapper.
I like Poppy - it's not an all-time favourite, but I don't think it deserves its reputation. It's plucky, very English, a bit wistful because of the WW1 association.
My ranking: Phoebe > Ella > Poppy > Ruby > Sadie
masculine list: https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/191050/124079
feminine list: https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/191050/124080
