It would depend on the name. Robin, for instance, can go anywhere. A Robin can be a singer, a doctor, a waitress, or a bank president.
I think Autumn and possibly Willow are the same way.

But names like Primrose and Raven? Well, anybody with that name can be a very professional person, but the names themselves do not give off an especially professional vibe. They give off a vibe of being self-chosen as nicknames, stage names or internet handles.

It isn't just nature names that give off unprofessional vibes; a David, a Blake, a Julia, or a Lauren all sound at home on a professional adult, but Ace, Jagger, Caramia and Buffy don't.

And Brooke, Forest, Jay and Rose are all nature names and they sound professional.
