You asked about the name Heather. I'm not certain which I like more Heather or Veronica. I've only ever known one person named Heather but I've liked the name since then. I've only ever met a handful of people named Heather. I didn't realize that it is often considered a dated name until I became older. I always thought is was an uncommon name when I was a kid. I have a stuffed animal that I named Heather. I choose the name since it sounded romantic, gentle, sweet and flowery. My mom gave us presents for many holidays other than Christmas. My sister and I would even get presents on each others birthdays. My mom gave me Heather on Valentine's day, so I wanted a name for her that suited the occasion.

Also I never saw or heard of the movie Heathers until like three years ago, so I don't associate the name with mean preppy girls. I associate the name Heather with the plant. I also don't associate the name Veronica with the movie. I associate Veronica with the TV show Veronica Mars. A Veronica wouldn't necessarily have to go by Roni. Most of the Veronica's I've met or seen on TV have just gone by Veronica.
