Help[Opinions] Re: Jade (m)
in reply to a message by New_Chloë
Yay, I’m glad I’m not the only one. :)
I totally catch the retro vibe you’re talking about, though I can even see a Jade / Alva / Cleo (m) as recent as the 70s in my mind, oddly.
I was playing with both Jade (name) Shelby and Jade Shelby (name) and thought they both sounded alright, so I do agree the combos sound nice that way as well!
Jade Shelby Marshall is really nice. Marshall’s also a name on my list. :)
What other gemstone / floral names have you been thinking about for boys? You piqued my interest!
Please rate my lists. All of them are ratable except for the Main list and the Surname list. :)
New names! PNL updated 5/29.

I actually had a conversation like this with someone, if they HAD to pick flowery names for their son, what would they pick? And they said Iris and Aster. I came up with Clover (an idea I still love), Fern, Poppy, Lys, and Jonquil. I also liked Aspen, which is apparently just for girls? I had no idea.
For gems, there are more options:
Opal "Opie" has heavy retro vibes to me
Topaz
Emerald (that "rald" makes me think of Gerald, Reginald)
Garnet
Chalcedony "Ced"
Cinnabar
Coral - I love this for a girl, but boy-Coral has more of that 1930's energy, just like Opal, Garnet, and Fern.
Diamond - this one actually has some historical precedence
Feldspar (love this one. Also reminds me of a flower name, Larkspur/Delphinium!)
Haüyne
Turquoise

Emerald, Garnet & Diamond are cool. I vaguely remember a discussion over Opal “Opie.” Coral is nice as well, but reminds me of Andrew Lincoln’s character in The Walking Dead yelling for Carl.
Iris would work nicely, I love love love Iris for a girl. Aster and Aspen also work very easily. Turquoise is interesting.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Haüyne or Chalcedony.
Thanks for sharing. :)
