What do you think of the name... Dahlia? All of a sudden I love it to pieces and it's topping my list!
edit I didn't even think about that new film, 'Black Dahlia'. I watched 'Silent Hill' yesterday and one of the characters is called Dahlia :) Rubbish film but pretty name!

this is the second time I see it today, I predict that because of the movie coming out this name is going to be hella popular.

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

Yep. Exactly.

[thunderofsins.livejournal.com]

Most definately!

[miss-tee.livejournal.com]

I doubt it.

[ladyartemisa.livejournal.com]

i am willing to bet on it.

[miss-tee.livejournal.com]

I am willing to bet also
lol, but what's the qualification of it being "popular"?

[ladyartemisa.livejournal.com]

watching it go up in popularity in the end of year name census thingie... i can guarantee that it will bemuch higher.

[miss-tee.livejournal.com]

hmm, well I'm not saying it will not go up at all I'm just saying it won't become super popular. According to Social Security Online it hasn't cracked the top 1000. I would say by the end of the year maybe it will be in the top 1000, but not above 800.

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

It's too... prim (?) for me.

[smasharash.livejournal.com]

I really like it, it's so pretty! And I think it would grow very well on a child - great on baby, child, teenager, woman and old lady!

[x-lostinyou.livejournal.com]

I think it'll be ludicrous if this name becomes popular because of that movie. Not that it hasn't happened before, but really - why would you want to name your child after one of the most infamous murder victims of all times? Ridiculous.

I love it! It's my favourite flower name.

[heyitsrebecca.livejournal.com]

I love it!
It was a top contender for my last child, but then I found out about the upcoming movie, just before she was born. And I didn't want people to think she was named after it, or the actual murder case.
If I were to use it, I'd wait at least a few more years, until the movie is a distant memory in most peoples' minds.

I love it. I don't think the association will last forever. It's not like naming her Amityville or Texas Chainsawlynn or something.

[mrsduryee.livejournal.com]

LOL!!!!

[quiteoutofplace.livejournal.com]

Texas Chainsawlynn has definitely just been added to me top 10 list.

[sotypical42483.livejournal.com]

It's okay. I'm sort of neutral on it.

[dosequisgirl.livejournal.com]

I don't think it's a very pretty name, pretty flower though.

[feelslike-2day.livejournal.com]

I like. A lot

[xcuore.livejournal.com]

i like Dahlia
im very curious to the english pronouncement of it.
is it like; Day-li-ah or more Daaa-li-ah?

the dutch version is daa-li-ah

[x-lostinyou.livejournal.com]

It's pronounced the same.

[pap3r-heart.livejournal.com]

I've liked this name for years actually.
It used to be in my top 5.
I still like it even though I wouldn't necessarily use it.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_x_blackroses_x/]

It's nice enough. Not one of my favorites.

I don't remember now...but wasn't this the main character's name in Dark Water, too?

[coconutchica.livejournal.com]

I really like it, it sounds so mysterious
