[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love it, it's perfect. People obsess too much about [b]not giving girls very feminine names.[/b] Why? The trend is toward giving all children more masculine names. Why? Anyway, this has been my choice for a second daughter for years. It's looking less and less like it will happen, so I hope you use it because the world could use a Daisy. Some similar names I also love: June, Joy, Lila, Poppy, Penny[/quote] I think you're misreading the issue. It would be a very strange argument indeed that Daisy is *more feminine* than Margaret, for instance. They're both unequivocally feminine. But Daisy has a diminutive feel, like it is a pet name or nickname. Not everyone wants their kid to have no options other than "super cute" for their name. I'd say the same thing to an OP suggesting naming a boy Timmy instead of Timothy. It's not about gender, it's about formality and options.[/quote]
