Good name or skanky name?

My husband and I are expecting are first daughter. We have a 2 and a half year old so (Benny). We both love the name Lily and are positive that we are going to call her Lily. But, my husband has a friend that he has been friends with since they were three. Her name is Tiger and she has become one of my best friends. They promised (when they were in highschool that they would name a kid after them one day). She gave her first son my husbands first name. We were talking one night about the baby name and we thought about naming her Tigerlily but calling her Lily. We want to know if it sounds skanky.

Good name or skanky name?
It sounds stupid to me. What is Tiger%26#039;s MIDDLE name? I would try going with that faster than I would go with Tiger. Her middle name has got to be normal... isn%26#039;t it?
Reply:I really dont think you should call your daughter Tiger. But why don%26#039;t you make it her middle name?
Reply:no, it is beautiful. Nothing wrong with that name.
Reply:I wouldn%26#039;t say it sounds skanky but more so ridiculous. but hey it works for Michael Hutchence%26#039;s daughter Tiger Lily.
Reply:What about using Lily as a first name and Tiger as the middle name?
Reply:That%26#039;s a lovely name. Tiger Lily is the name of a beautiful flower - there is absolutely nothing skanky about it. I think Tiger would be a great first name. :-)
Reply:its beautiful, not skanky at all. it is a meaning for lots of thinks, check out the weblinks below.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think it sounds skanky, but I certainly wouldn%26#039;t want it to be my name.
Reply:oh that is great...that is the little indian girl%26#039;s name on Peter Pan i actually thought about that name for my oldest!!! Not skanky at all.
Reply:It sounds weird. I would hate it if my name was tigerlilyl. It sounds dumb.





Think about the KID. She will be made fun. I am all for out of the ordinary names, but Tigerlily is weird. Like Apple is dumb name (Gweneth Paltroe).





Name her Amber. It is different but not dumb. Tigerlily is dumb.
Reply:Hmmm!!..Tigerlily...doesn%26#039;t sound skanky to me..just thinking about when she is older...Aunt Tigerlily. !.grandma Tigerlily !...I think she will be made fun off..kids can be cruel...Please just call her Lily..Tigerlily if you must but shorten it to Lily, by the way, does your husbands friend like her name?
Reply:It%26#039;s beautiful and different.
Reply:I think it sounds fine. If that%26#039;s what you both want, then go ahead!
Reply:Well ... I must admit that I kind of like Tigerlily. And I%26#039;m not the type to embrace an overly unconventional name.





Is it skanky? Well, it%26#039;s the tiniest bit trashy. I found a reference to the name Thora as a girl%26#039;s name that means Tiger. An alternative might be Lily Thora. Or, of course, Lily Tiger.





And yet ... I think I might go for Tigerlily. It is a flower, and it almost feels like Rosemary - a similar rhythm, anyhow.





You%26#039;ll get some flak, but Lily is the safest of nicknames.
Reply:I like the suggestion of using Lillian Tiger...then she can be Lily for short!
Reply:oh my god that is an amazing name.


your daughter is lucky :)
Reply:how about you make Tiger her middle name
Reply:how about Lillian Tiger


or combining them in a less abvious way


Tilly or Tigian
Reply:Well, on the bright side Tigerlily is a lot better than Tiger in my opinion. Try using capitals or such to emphasise the feminine name Lily. Ex; TigerLily, Tiger-Lily. One of my children%26#039;s middle names is Lily! I think it%26#039;s a simply wonderful name. I really don%26#039;t think Tigerlily (however you choose to write it) is skanky at all...not saything that I personally would use the name but it%26#039;s definitely not skanky. It%26#039;s just too native (if you will) for my taste. Lily is a simply lovely name. Great choice!

Reply:What about Tily? Sounds cute to me!
Reply:Well I named the cat that came with my house tigerlily calling her lily for short!! My mom loves it!!!
Reply:Does she have a middle name you could use instead? Tiger sound like a stripper name, I wouldn%26#039;t do that to your kid.
Reply:tigerlily, is definitly better than just Tiger... You could even spell it a little different like tygerlilly, or something
Reply:OMIGOD - please don%26#039;t.


Imagine if YOUR name was Tigerlily and everytime you had to give your legal name you had to say TIGERLILY.


Imagine if she becomes a lawyer or a doctor - who would take her seriously with a name like Tigerlily.


I love the name Lily - go with that.
Reply:I love that name ..and no it is skanky
Reply:Tigerlily is cute and different. I love the idea!!
Reply:It%26#039;s not skanky, definitely unique. My only fear would be teasers using the Peter Pan reference...
Reply:I think you have come up with an amazing way to honor your hubby%26#039;s friend and still have the name you have chosen.





It doesn%26#039;t sound skankey at all.
Reply:Lillian Tiger..... if you name her Tigerlily and just call her Lily.. Tiger might have her feelings hurt if you dont use her name. Use it as a Middle name instead
Reply:I think its sounds very stripper like and she will be made fun of for the rest of her life. I like liliana Teagan use her initials instead.
Reply:omgsh. i think that name sounds great. its not skanky at all.
