Imogen
in reply to a message by RDNZL
I've always found it to be pleasant and I might consider using it, but anytime I mention the name IRL, people tend to gag. Visibly. I don't understand why anyone would gag -- I think it's cute and suitable for both a child or a young or mature adult.

I gag. Visibly. *pause to allow mental Imogen of me gagging*
I have this impression of it being a name for a character who is the ingenue child of wealthy important British people, but a name for a real-life child of people who fantasize such characters. A name that virtually didn't exist before there were any such people using it.
I think part of the problem is that it reminds slightly of the word image.
It's not an ugly name.

I think it's adorable.
Oh my gosh, I just saw a perfume by Lush called Imogen Rose and I was just telling my mom how I don't like Imogen. I mean, it gets cool points from me for not being frilly and overly girly. It's like Eleanor's bookish younger sister. But it still sounds like a medicine or just random sounds put together to me.
Though I kinda like how Imogen Rose sounds. And Imogen Lilly. Aw, man, it might be growing on me.

The "Ima" sound just isn't attractive to me.
I don't understand it, either. It's an adorkable name to me. :/
