This name is extremely stupid and pointless. It sounds SO wrong!

Saying that this name is extremely stupid and wrong makes you sound completely ignorant. What's wrong with it? It's a word in English? So what? It's a perfectly fine name in Dutch.

Floortje (the Dutch diminutive of Floor) is the name of my cat. I like both names, but I know much more cats and dogs with this names than boys and girls.

Ignoring the obvious English meaning, I'm surprised it actually does have a really pretty sound to it. A lot like Fleur.

If you live in an English-speaking country, please do your child a favor and don't name them after that nice, hard surface under your feet.

I think it goes without saying that Anglophones don't call their children Floor. You don't even need to say that. I find some people's ignorance quite insulting. Sure, it might mean "floor" in English, but it's the Dutch form of Flora. Please show some respect for other people's languages.

My parents thought about naming me Floor (I'm Dutch) and up until now, the English meaning never even crossed my mind which is funny because I study English at university and speak and read English for the majority of my time. I guess the name was just so familiar to me (I know a couple of people named Floor) that I never really looked at it long enough to consider what it means in English. Now that I've realized that, I'm glad my parents didn't name me this. However, the English meaning aside, I still think this is a nice name.
