Luna & Willow....
I feel like I'm the only person who doesn't like either of these names!
They're cute on cats or dogs or rabbits etc, but ugh I really dislike them on a person- - -
Alma. Theodora. Margot. Saoirse. Nina
&
Alexander. Jesse. Hugo. Roman. Freddie

In my opinion, Luna fits fictional characters and cats, but on a real person... I'm sorry, I just have trouble seeing it as a person's name.Willow, on the other hand, is one that I can imagine on a person, but more often than not, I just imagine the tree instead of anything else.

I don't like them either

They're SO current! Pagan revival/boho. I think they're cute but their charm is a bit thin at the moment.

I used to love Luna because of the Harry Potter character. It seemed mysterious and nice to me. Now that it's so overused it feels like it has lost its charm a bit.I used to love Willow and I still love the trees. But it sort of sounds like a nickname for a guy named William (Will-o) which I dislike.Overall I can understand their appeal but to me they feel tired now.

I 100% agree with what you said about Luna.I used to love it too because of Harry Potter. I love Luna Lovegood. But, like you said, it became so overused. Especially for pets. I think, because I’ve met or heard of more cats & dogs with the name Luna than humans, that I now associate that name with animals.I like Willow, though.

Yes, according to statistics Luna is the #1 name for German dogs. I also know cats and a rabbit called Luna.
