Clementine.

Or would you associate it too much with the ruby lips and size nine shoes?

Love it!

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Me too!
My friends make fun of me when I say I think it's really lovely.

[angels-airwaves.livejournal.com]

Clementine is really sweet and feminine. and from my favourite film too ;]

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Mine too!
Sort of what started my love for this name.

[neroli.livejournal.com]

Ruby lips, etc., come from the song too

[bloomingtulip.livejournal.com]

I second this comment.

And I have no idea what "ruby lips and size nine shoes" refers to.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

So do basically all of the people I have ever mentioned the name too. :[

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

I can see that.
Tons of names are just 'okay' for me.

[soulsurvival.livejournal.com]

um, no I wouldn't associate it with what you said... but I would associate it with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind, like you have in your icon. *shrugs*
I like it but I wouldn't use it, because it's like naming your child Amelie for the french movie or Angelina Jolie or Juniper Pearl after benny and june or something, I feel like. nms

ICON LURVE!!!!


For the OP - makes me think of the oranges first, song second. I don't think I'd use it, but it's pretty.

I actually associate it too much with the small Christmas fruits. Although the "ruby lips above the water" are also a factor.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Christmas fruits are good!
Better than a victim of drowning.

[mrsduryee.livejournal.com]

I would use it as a middle name for sure. I like it a lot.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Yay!

[ashadelic.livejournal.com]

That was the weirdest thing ever.... we JUST finished watching Eternal Sunshine, my parents had never seen it and they were over for the evening, so we decided to pop it in because it's one of my favorites. Then, they leave, I hop online and...... Clementine... randomness man!

Anyhoo.. I really really like it. I don't think I could use it because of the song association, but I do like it a lot. I love the nickname Clem, too.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

DID YOU LIKE THE MOVIE?
It's one of my absolute favourites. I tend to watch it around winter-timeish.

Clem's nice. Wayyy better than Clemmy.

[maude.livejournal.com]

I think it's slowly getting really popular. It's not my taste but I like it a lot more than the current popular names.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Really?
I haven't heard of anyone naming their child Clementine!

[rockstargrrrlie.livejournal.com]

I think it's adorable :)
I just wish it had a better nickname than Clem.

[smasharash.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Clem sounds too much like phlem. eww.

[arbus.livejournal.com]

i ADORE it.

but i think of the fruit before anything else. but i still love it. and would still use it.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Hot diggity.

[satunian.livejournal.com]

I would think of the song, to tell you the truth. But even on its own, it's not a very appealing name to me.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Okey-dokey.

[rubytitania.livejournal.com]

I don't really like it. I just think of the fruit. I like the fruit, but...I dunno. Not my style :)

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Ha, ha.
That's okayyyyy. :]

[bexeh.livejournal.com]

It reminds me of a hippy who changed her name to it from something really dull and has different coloured dreadlocks, the strange thing is, i dont know anyone like that, its just what pops to mind with that name. Take from that what you want, im not sure if its an insult or a compliment. Neither.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

I'd take it as a compliment if there weren't dreadlocks involved. :P

[anapology.livejournal.com]

I like.
But i don't like the nn Clemmy/Clem/Teeny or whatever! & if i dont like the shortenings of a name i get really put off.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

I think Clem's cute.
But it's also a character from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and he had floppy skin, so perhaps not the BEST association.

In the movie they called her Tangerine.

[glitterberrys.livejournal.com]

I think it's adorable.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Woo hoo!
Naming-a-kid-that-kind-of-worthy, though?

[sotypical42483.livejournal.com]

It sounds very southern, but it is really pretty.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

Southern?
I don't see it as being Southern at all, ha.

[bopeepsheep.livejournal.com]

I really like it. It's the middle name of a friend's daughter, and I like the song and the fruit - it's also a variety of rose. I also like the Tom Lehrer version of the song ("herringboxes senza topses sandale per Clementina, si, per Clementine"). :)

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

It is a pretty name indeed.
And songs about names... they just make most names sound fantastic, I think.

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

I associate it with Kate's character from the film, and I totally love it.

[omgzits--tam.livejournal.com]

It was a great character.

[oh-snitch.livejournal.com]

Nope. It's one of my favorite girl names (even before Eternal Sunshine...)

[cerabellum.livejournal.com]

orange.

But I LOVE it.
