[Opinions] Tawny
WDYT of Tawny?On a scale of 1-10, what would you rate it?What would you use for a middle name, and what would you name a brother and sister? **After supposedly dying on January 30, 2007 after eating tainted pancakes, she returned several times as an angel and was revealed to be alive on May 17, 2011. )**

I feel like it's similar to Ruby or Olive but browner and flat, and the sound brings to mind names like Dawn, Tammy, or Tonya.6/10 because it's namey and not boring.Tawny Jocasta

Tawny Almira
Tawny Iris

idkI would probably name a sister something like Twyla, Kelda, Tess, or Merle. A brother is harder. Something like Teddy, Wade, Joel, Rufus seems passable, but I don't quite like those enough right now to even pretend I'd use them. Maybe Ike, Sterling, Ferris, or Asher.Tawny Melina and Sterling Jason

7/10 - Tawny is cute. It is very informal sounding and might work best on a pet or a spritely character in a story. If Tinkerbell didn't have a fairy friend named Tawny, then she should have. While Tawny is technical a color name, it feels more nature themed and organic.

I give it a 5. I like it in theory but I think it’s kind of “trashy” for the lack of a better word. Sisters: Star, Bambi, Brandy, Holly, Fawn
Brothers: Ryan, Scott, Toby, Justin

The sound of it is nice - I rhyme it with Bonnie, I don't say the first syllable like tawdry ... I don't like the look of the letters AW, though.
I like the idea of the color as a name, I guess, but it seems more rustic rather than romantic, compared to Sienna. More of a hair-color name than a landscape-color name.5/10Tawny Mariah & Tarn Virgil

It's a zero. Look up "stripper name" and that'll be the first example shown. It's like Bubbles or Blondie, very low-rent and dated; you'd expect a stripper from around 1970 to use it.

Ooh - sorry, Starfish, I should have included that in your Dog Names list in the Lounge. Honest - I spent the night once, as a student, with an acquaintance whose family owned a large, fluffy dog named Tawny. It gets better. Tawny and the girl next door prodced a litter of puppies, one of which was kept and named, brace yourself, Fawny.Assuming that the Tawny I knew was in fact human, then its, OK his, sibs would have been Bruce and Jill.
