i love the name dahlia but family cant get over the fact of the black dahlia murder case way back in the day that was never solved … should i drop the name or push over the fact ?
I think it is a fine name.
It was a flower before it was a controversy. Still, it would have to be my absolute favorite name before I would try to fight for it.
I think that [name]Dahlia[/name] has enough associations outside of the [name]Black[/name] [name]Dahlia[/name] case that it should be fine.
That was what, 70 years ago? It’s very minor. Your own little [name]Dahlia[/name] would quickly come to dominate any associations with the name. It’s lovely and not commonly used in the US.
I agree with what @blade said.
