Re: What are the snobbiest and most old-fashioned English first names, according to you?
I hadn't really noticed the timing of the use of the name Poppy, but I'm not too suprised although it's steadily becoming more popular all round. The tv chef Jamie Oliver known as "The Naked Chef" recently named his baby Poppy Honey!

Gasp! Very culinary, actually - could have been Diane Mignon ... I was at school with a delightful girl whose given names were Alison Margaret Honeybun, but at least she had plenty to dilute the third one with.
