Re: Spiced-up names...
in reply to a message by Joiya
Rue - I like the sound of this but since I'm Canadian it's just "street" to me. I also dislike that it's a word for regret.
Sorrel - I wouldn't personally use this on a child (but I considered it for a dog) but I can see the appeal. I think it sounds very masculine.
Anise - Pretty, definitely sounds like a name
Basil - A bit old fashioned, but still a good name.
Ginger - Trashy and cheesy.
Quassia - This could work as a name, but it sounds made up.
Paprika - Silly.
Thyme - Also silly, since it's homonym for "time"
Bay - I don't really see the appeal.
Cassia - Beautiful, I have known quite a few girls with this name pronounced the Polish way KASH-uh
Clary - As a nickname it's fine but rather unattractive and silly as a full name.
Tamarind - This is another name that just passes as a girls name, I could see it being used and not sounding ridiculous.
Cayenne - Not found of it.
Cinnamon - Only if you're naming a stripper.
Woodruff - This could work for a boy, I mean it is similar to a lot of actual surnames. Woodrow worked for the president after all.
Clove - Doesn't sound like a name.
Clover - a rabbit name.
Lavender - Doesn't sound like a name at all, and is over the top hippy-dippy.
Thistle - a rabbit name.
Arnica - Sounds like someone with a heavy accent saying Annika.
Saffron - Pretty. This is one of my ultimate guilty pleasure names.
Poppy - Nice.
Rosemary - Gorgeous.
Sage - Nice.
Pepper - Dog name, or a stripper name.
Amandine - pretty name for a girl.
