How sweet is too sweet?

General Name Discussion

This applies really only to girl names.
[name_m]How[/name_m] cute is too cute?
I think [name_f]Meadow[/name_f] and [name_f]Rosy[/name_f] and [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] are sweet names.
[name_m]Even[/name_m] [name_f]Posy[/name_f] is not too sweet for me.
[name_f]Honey[/name_f]? I’m not sure - maybe it is too cute as a name.
[name_u]Angel[/name_u] - far too cutesy.

Would like to hear others thoughts…

I don’t really think of [name_u]Angel[/name_u] as cutesy, but flower names (excluding [name_f]Iris[/name_f]), [name_f]Meadow[/name_f] and [name_f]Honey[/name_f] are cutesy. Basically anything that sounds more like a pet than a human.

Anything that I just can’t see on a professional, respected 30-something businesswoman is too cutesy. Names that are cute on a baby, toddler, or even a teenager don’t always age well.

There are many flower names though that I dont find cutesy - such as [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f], [name_f]Marigold[/name_f], [name_f]Lilac[/name_f], [name_f]Lily[/name_f]…

Names that are TOO CUTESY as first names for my comfort level - [name_f]Coco[/name_f], [name_f]Mimi[/name_f], [name_f]Fifi[/name_f], [name_f]Lulu[/name_f], [name_f]Posy[/name_f], [name_f]Pansy[/name_f], [name_f]Betsy[/name_f], [name_f]Lindy[/name_f], [name_u]Lexi[/name_u], [name_f]Lacey[/name_f], [name_f]Becky[/name_f], [name_f]Candy[/name_f], [name_f]Dolly[/name_f], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], [name_f]Dottie[/name_f], [name_f]Gigi[/name_f], [name_f]Kiki[/name_f], [name_f]Mindy[/name_f], [name_f]Honey[/name_f], [name_u]Angel[/name_u], [name_f]Macy[/name_f], [name_f]Zuzu[/name_f], [name_f]Princess[/name_f], [name_f]Precious[/name_f]

OK as nicknames - [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] for [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]/[name_f]Marguerite[/name_f], [name_f]Posy[/name_f] for [name_f]Josephine[/name_f], [name_f]Polly[/name_f]/[name_f]Molly[/name_f] for [name_f]Paulina[/name_f] and [name_f]Mary[/name_f], [name_u]Penny[/name_u] or [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] for [name_f]Penelope[/name_f]

Boys names can be too cutesy too. Names like [name_u]Alfie[/name_u], [name_m]Archie[/name_m] and [name_u]Freddie[/name_u] are all the rage in [name_f]England[/name_f].
