[Opinions] Sienna?
Would it be totally wrong to name my daughter "Sienna" with the last name Brown, seeing that it means a color? I might just save it for a ginger cat, which would be cute. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

I don't like mixing word names together, even if one's the fn and one's the ln. Not the best idea, imo. Other than that, I don't really care for Sienna much anyway. :-/

Oh, please don't. Every time I see Sienna I'm transported back to my childhood opening a box of Crayola crayons. It would be like naming her Ginger Brown or Tawny Brown. Yikes.Siena, the city, is a nice name, but even then not with the ln Brown.

I like the name and it doesn't sound bad with last name... I mean, sienna is a super common color. It would be worse if she were named Ruby Red or Scarlett Redman or something. Honestly, I think it's nice. It doesn't bother me at all.**BritneyTamber**

Sienna is a lovely name, but I would avoid using it with the last name Brown. It sounds too much like the name of a shade of paint, wood, or some other object.
