Phoebe is starting to grow on me. I can see that it’s getting pretty popular in the UK. How do you like the name? What kind of imagery do you think of? Thanks!!
I like Phoebe!
Strawberry lemonade, flowy white dresses, raspberry pastries, windy afternoons, someone who is always laughing, dancing in her own little world
I adore the name [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] and really wish my spouse would get on board. [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] feels like an ultra sunny name , very strong willed , earthy
[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] is sunny and sweet but with strength too
I’ve known a few Phoebes my age (early 30s, U.K.) but it seems like it’s getting more popular for younger generations!
I get very rich celestial vibes from [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] - it’s a warm, sunny, golden name to me but there’s also the moon goddess connection so I can also see the shimmery glow of the moon and stars, Greek islands and beaches, love poetry, long hair with flowers in it
I’ve only known one [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] in my school a while back (UK) but she wasn’t the nicest so it put me off the name. Also it sounds terrible in my accent which puts me off even more but as a whole I don’t mind it when done well.
[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] is my daughter’s name so I’m a tad biased, but I love it! I’m US based and it’s much less popular here, so I only know one [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] in her teens and none my daughter’s age (baby). We have gotten TONS of compliments on her name since she was born! A few people have asked if she’s named after the Friends character but most people don’t even comment on the association. It’s a gorgeous name which fits my daughter perfectly - she is sweet, spunky, independent, outgoing, and loves to make people smile.
It’s in my shortlist for my next one! So I like it!
[name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] is a cool name! Not my personal favorite, but still a nice name.
Some imagery I get from [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] is a hot summer day, going to the beach, and a spunky little girl with two thick blonde braids.
A color I strongly associate with her is yellow!
I’ve always loved [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]! It makes me think of [name_f]Annie[/name_f] [name_u]Oakley[/name_u] (her birth name was Phoebe!) and [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] Caulfield from [name_m]Catcher[/name_m] in the [name_u]Rye[/name_u]. It’s a lovely name
Thank you all! You’ve got me liking it more and more
I like [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]. It reminds me of a sweet, precocious girl. While many might think of [name_u]Lisa[/name_u] Kudrow’s character from Friends, I always think [name_u]Holden[/name_u] Caulfield’s sister from [name_m]Catcher[/name_m] in the [name_u]Rye[/name_u] (which makes me like the name more). It has an almost vintage feel to me, but is classic and cute.
I fell in love with [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] after my little sister told me that it sounds like a fairy. Before that it reminded me of the word ‘phobia’.
