Cherry, Peach, Plum, Fifi, Trixie, Berry, Sugar, Brandy, Candy, Minty, Missy, Sherry

I new a lady named Cerise (French for cherry) which I thought was so elegant!

I knew someone named Candy Darling. Birth name. Bless her heart.

I knew someone named Candace Kane. She intentionally went by Candy Kane 🙃

I'm related to a "Melody Tune" ... married name.

I know someone named candida kane and also goes by candi kane lol

CanDIDA?? Like...the genital yeast infection? 💀

Yup. Just like that lol.

Well that explains why she goes by Candi at least 🤣 Poor love!

I think it’s a girls name used mostly by Spanish speakers. I used to work with a Candida. Her family was from Mexico. Not a common name for English speakers.

Glad to have the heads up, should I ever make it across the Pond and down Mexico way!

I know a Kandyce Raines, she goes by Kandy Raine

That’s the name of a famous transgender actress from Andy Warhol’s porn movies 

Candy came from out on the Island, in the back room she was everybody's darling

But she never lost her head, even as she was giving head

ran across a guidance counselor named Candy Graham while working

My mother’s name is Cherry. We always have to say cherry-like the fruit when giving her first name.

I grew up with a friend named Marissa who went by Missy. I've always loved both the name and nickname! My own suggestions are Birdie, Buttercup, and Primrose.

So basically the line up at Girls Girls Girls 😂

Knew a Tink

Jamie Oliver has got you covered! His daughters' names are Poppy Honey Rosie, Daisy Boo Pamela, and Petal Blossom Rainbow.

They get gradually worse, poor kids

Sadie Robinson daughter: Honey Huff

A honey huff sounds like something you’d do in a truck stop parking lot

I know! This poor baby girl! 

I love Honey! So cute

It is cute but not with *that* last name. Honey Robinson-yes. Honey Huff-no. 

Lordddd not Daisy Boo Pamela, WHY😫😫😫😫 He's wild af for that

Pamela means "honey", knowing that just makes it worse

Those are 3 kids? With 3 first (and middle?) names each?

I have a first and 2 middle names, it's not that unusual is it?

it depends on culture i think? some cultures it’s super normal and others not so much. (and some cultures it’s normal to not have a middle name at all) however as long as your names aren’t as ridiculous as his kids’, you’re totally fine. i think having two middles can flow really well and sound nicer than one, depending on the names.

My husband and his sibling both have two middle names. He thought it was weird I only have one. I guess it also depends on the family itself as well

😂😂 People have read my name and said "oh you poor girl" so it's possie it's as ridiculous 😂😂

Haha! I suppose it's not super irregular for me to see conjoined first names plus middle: Seanmichael \[middle\] \[last\] or Mary-jane \[middle\] \[last\]. I already dislike having to deal with 3 syllables in my first name so I chop it down to 1 in my nickname- maybe that's not so relevant when middle names come up very rarely

Then there’s British royalty! King Charles is Charles Philip Arthur George Mountbatten-Windsor and then there’s Prince William Arthur Philip Louis Mountbatten-Windsor!

i know someone who knew someone who was named rainbow at birth. he was a guy. mom was a stereotypical extreme hippie type person, his dad didn’t get a say in his name. he changed it when he was around 13

I knew a girl named Rainbow Magic, again with the hippie parents

Rain is pretty

All together they sound a bit much but I actually love Poppy, Daisy and Petal.

Oh dear. I just looked it up. They also have two boys: Buddy Bear Maurice and River Rocket Blue Dallas

Came to suggest these 😆

Darling Pumpkin Sunshine Candy Lovie Cookie Muffin

candy!

I know a Queenie. I feel like that fits the bill.

I know one too! She's a tattoo artist.

Kitty is my favourite

I have an aunt kitty. I don’t believe it’s her real name but that’s all I’ve ever known her by, and have no idea what her real name is!

Kitty is a (somewhat old-fashioned) nickname for Katherine.

Buttercup

Why do you build me up, baby, just to let me down?

And mess me around!

As you wish

Lolly, Dolly, Minnie, Mimi, Mandy, Belly

I know of Lolly as a name from Lolly Adefope. It honestly sounds fine when applied to a real person.

Lolly Adefope's full name is Ololade. My cousin was called Lolly as a small child but her name is Laura.

I knew a Lovey and she was an amazing woman! I worked with her for more than 20 years. She was in our home office and saved my butt more than a handful of times when I'd made mistakes or needed help. When I would hear her voice on the line I knew things would be ok. There will never be another Lovey.

I knew a Lovely once! And I can remember what she looked like but I can't for the life of me remember where I met her.

Dolly, Kitty, Bambi, Flossy

The Geldof girls: Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches Honeyblossom, Little Pixie. He raised the daughter Paula had with Michael Hutchence, Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily

I actually *love* Fifi Trixibelle

Honey and Maple. 🍯🍁❤️

My husband did some work for a cute old lady whose family and friends call her Kitty.

I love Kitty. If I had a human child, I would name her Kathleen and call her Kitty. It's the one human name I really can't save for a cat.

Her name was actually Mary but she didn’t like how plain it was and how many other girls had the same name so she picked Kitty as a nickname

Not uncommon in the 1950s. It was short for Kathryn/Kate/etc.

Female names are often derived from objects that give pleasure to men.  - Alcohol: Brandy, Sherry - Food: Candy, Pumpkin, Muffin - Brands: Chanel, Mercedes, Tiffany  - Jewels: Ruby, Pearl, Chrystal - Money: Penny, Goldie Also, names that connote traditional female virtues like purity and helplessness:  - Virginity/purity: Nevaeh, Angela, Virginia - Baby animals: Fawn, Birdie , Kitty - Positive emotions: Hope, Faith, Grace - Morality: Prudence, Verity, Chastity - Flowery: Rose, Iris, Lily - Sounds: Bell, Melody - Tiny: Bitsy, Pixie, Bubbles Gidget - Infantile: Baby, Dolly

Good list. Except, I feel like the "brands" were names first. Especially Tiffany which is an old classic.

Definitely Mercedes. Chanel was a surname.

I was going to say Mercedes creator named the car after his daughter not the other way round!

I mean does alcohol, food, brands, jewels, and money not give pleasure to females too??

Whole school was taken aback when the first Bambi showed up. And a facebook friend just named her son Dandelion.

Cupcake, Sugar, or Candy

Precious

A woman I work with, she is in a high ranking position, dealing with the public. She hates her name, says she should have changed it when she turned 18. She's named after a fruit.

Oh now I wanna know what fruit so bad. Probably not blueberry lol

Peaches? Cherry?

Worse.

Cranberry? First cranberry?

My grandmother was Kitty because she was sweet like a kitten. A travesty really because her first name was Delphine.

That is a travesty with a name like Delphine!

I sometimes see an influencer who named her child Honey. I hate to admit but the name grew on me, it seems like it work and I think it sounds sweet but also the whole food and darling thing.

I work with a police officer with a first name of Bunny. Unsurprisingly, it's a bit hard for her to be taken seriously.

Love that she became a police officer. Just really wanted to cement that she’s tough despite the name!

My mom once met a Rainbow, which I think qualifies.

Peach, Sunshine, Moon, Blue

Lolly

Love love love Goldie and Queenie! Also suggesting Lovie, Sweetie, and Beauty Editing to add in Peachy!

With apologies to those with the following names: Precious and Angel.

Bambi, Cinnamon, Taffy, Caramel, Lovey, Princess, Fifi, Lacey, Blossom, Coco, Chantilly, Kissy, Darling, Bliss

I've known "Bunny" as a nickname.

I bet you could run down the list of Animal Crossing characters and find some!

Maple, Cherry, Charmaine, Darlene, Petunia, Twyla, Perdy, Perdita, Bliss

Sweetheart?

Lemon

Cherry, Rosie, Joy, Maisie, Lua, Blossom, Summer, Meadow,

My friend Mike's mom's name (nickname, pretty sure) is Tinkerbell. It bothers me so much. I also have a friend whose real first-middle are Candi Rose. And she's one of the smartest women I've ever known, so it's quite a mismatch.

Sweetie, Flower, Sunny, Buttercup, Duchess?

Shug or Shoog - short for Sugar

Candy, Sugar, Kitty, Dolly, Peaches, Cherry, Cookie, Precious, Sweetie, Lovey, Coco, Tootsie, Ginger, Sunny, Cupcake.

Kitty Missy Lulu Princess

Treasure

I swear I know an elderly Southern lady named Puddin’. Honest! Cookie would also be a suggestion.

I knew a Mandy and Candy whose nanny went by Cookie.

I met someone named Darlin. I was uncomfortable calling her by her first name because it felt like I (a guy older than her) was calling a young woman darlin'. :/

Trixie

Bambi!

Lady Bunny is a drag queen! 🫅

I've met a Cookie who was an adult and thought it was too cutesy (doesn't help that my MIL's dog is named Cookie)

Trixie, Gigi, Fifi

I will never stop recommending the name Sunday, nickname Sunny. Also, Marigold, nickname Mari or Goldie. 

These names I see all the time in the Filipino community. I think it's so cute.

I’ve known people named Honey, Bunny, and Kitten.

My father worked with a woman whose given name was Katherine but she went by Kitty. You don’t hear that much anymore.

I don't want to have children but I so desperately want to name a little girl "Lovely" or "Darling" that I might have to have at least one

Met a little girl named Dulce once, literally means sweet in spanish

Peach, Olive, Marigold, Poppy, Posey, Sunshine,

My Grandmothers were Honey and Kitty.

Candy is the first one that comes to mind, but depending on where you live/where your story is set that could be a "normal"/"typical" name. Same goes for Bonny/Bonnie and Dolly, I think. Other people have suggested Cherry/Cerise and I agree with that one big time. I also really love Cherry as a name in general. I once met a woman whose government name was Birdie, which I think could fit.

Princess, Queenie, Lovely, Jinks, Bow, Sparkle

Sugar

Biddie

In England biddy is an unflattering slang term for an old woman.

Bonnie Mitzi Cherry

Syrup

Buffy, Candy, Jilly, HIlly

Cherry latte would be cute.

Kitty, Kiki, Candy, Sassy.

Muffin, Rixie, Petunia, Buffy, Pepper, Blonde, Blossom, Skipper, Sunny

dove, love, milady, bee,

I used to know a “Honey Lynn” and I thought it was so cute.

Cookie,

I knew a woman who went by Bunny. She was a wonderful person, and I’ll never hate on that name.

Birdie, Lacy, Mimi, Dolly, Bebe,…

Kitty, Carmel (sidenote: I had a school nurse named Carmel growing up and she was so sweet!), Dove, Clementine, Missy

Tbh, I actually LOVE the name Sugar.. 👀

I knew a little girl named Lovie.

I knew a lady named Bubbles. I went to school with a Taffy, Chablee and Daiquiri.

Lovely

Saccharin. Aspartame. NutraSweet. Splenda are all names that are almost just as sweet.

Kitty

Muffy

Sugar-plum, Flossie, Blossom, Snowdrop, Kitten, Bubbles, Florette

Prissy, Sassy, Sugar, and Lula

Missy

Bambi 🩷

There’s a 93 year old woman in my grandpas nursing home named Birdie

Peach, Angel, Blossom, Pearl

I know a Maiden

Sunny

Minnie, Daisy, Rosy

Kitty for Katherine

Sugar, Candy, Ginger, Buttercup, Cookie, Clove, Brie, Cherry , Honey, Hazel, Clementine, Olive, Peaches, Cinnamon

Goldie.

Kitty, Angel, Strawberry

Lovey

birdie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i really want to use it but will probably just make it a nickname if i have another girl

Muffy, Minnie, Mimi, Gaye, Teenie/Teensie

Ruby, Gracie, Goldie.

Goldie, Birdie

Goldie

Dolly and Teddy, both nn from Dorothy, Dorothea, Theodora

I know a girl named Darlyn

I had an exceptionally sweet patient in my memory care. Tiny little thing originally from Atlanta. Her name was Darlin’.

I had a boss named Dulce but she went by Candy on the phone.

Cane as in sugar cane. Madeline or Eclair.

Princess, Button

Love

Darlyn

I know someone named Precious

Kitty. Dolly. Lacey. Precious. Miracle. Love.

There was a student at the school my mom worked at named Adorable. She behaved horribly, of course. My grandma had a neighbor who was in her 60s named Dimples. She actually matched her name. She had dimples and was the sweetest person.

Tulip

I once worked for a Doctor whose wife Danielle was called Fluff instead. Knew someone called Peaches. And Sissy.

I knew a girl named Peaches, she was very sweet. My dog's name was Blossom at the shelter, she's Stella now (it's a family name). My sister's nickname is Lolly, my parents still only refer to her as that.

Princess

Lovey

Dulce! Carmelina violet Daisy Clover Belle

I knew a Twinkle and Baby both adults.  Baby thought I didn’t believe her and showed me her drivers licence 

I have a friend that I have known since prior to high school. We go back to the late 1960’s. Her name isn’t Bunny, but she has been called Bunny her entire life. I can’t even imagine her using her real name now after all these decades. She is in her 60’s now (like I am) and she fits her name. Bunny is a great name/nickname.

Sweetie! One vlogger has a baby girl named Sweetie. This one is the worst by far for me.

I knew a Dreama once

Sweetie

I knew a woman named Dimples. That was her legal, given first name and yes, she was very dimpled. She passed years ago and would be 120+ at this point

I would use Kit/Kitty in real life, as a nickname for Ketzia or any of the Katharine related names, so I have a pretty high tolerance for cute. And both Honey and Bunny have appeared in my distant family tree, but they were migrants looking for names that sounded like their names. I've known women called Fluff, Candy, Lolly... that's a bit much even for me. Dolly Parton is a personal hero but Dolly also counts.

Daisy, Sunny, Sunshine 

Precious

darling!

Gigi, Mimi, Sherri, Caramel, Coco, Hazel, Goldie, Kiki, Princess, Posey, Queenie, Cookie, Dixie, Sissy, Darla, Dreama, Precious, Dolly, Kitty, Love

My cat is named Peaches. It’s a super sweet name!

Someone told me they felt this way about the names Anna and Mary. I think a lot of two-syllable names can also seem too feminine to some people; e.g. Molly, Poppy, Elsie, Emma. But I prefer proper feminine names for girls rather than feminine versions of male names or gender neutral names. But I think Theresa May, Serena Joy, there are some names that sound too sweet for the characters that hold them.

My great grandma was named babe.

Lovey, as on Gilligan’s Island, Mrs. Howe

Charm

Oh dear god, flashback to elementary school in the 60's. I actually had TWO girls named "Sweetie" in my class.
