A woman came in to the charity shop I volunteer in on Thursday with her 3-and-a-half year old called Sequoia. What do you think?

Makes me think of the Toyota, but I'm actually surprised I haven't heard it before as a new-age nature name.

It has been on my list for a long time. I like the name, I like the way it sounds and the nature connection. The only thing that makes me hesitate is the car connection, although I'm not sure if the car is still being produced.

I kind of like it. I didn't immediately think of the car though...If I had thought of the car right away, it probably would have been a huge turn off like Mercedes or Lexus...

I immediately think of that episode of Friends where Rachael and Ross were trying to think of names for their baby

i kind of like it - i knew a girl named sequoia who went by quoi/qoi (pronounced as "coy") for short.

Not a fan; it kind of makes me cringe. =/

Boy or girl? Not that it matters. I hate it either way.

There were two biology professors at my first college who had a daughter named Sequoia. They had another daughter named Acacia.

I am a hippy girl at heart so I looove this. And yes, I love the name and since I live in South America I have no connections to any cars being named that.

I think it's more suited to a girl, but it's cute.

didn't know there was a car, so i don't think that would be an issue.
