Evoking images of serene landscapes, Heather is a name derived from the English word referring to a variety of small shrubs with pink or white flowers, often associated with Scotland. Symbolically, it embodies independence and solitude; much like the plant that thrives in the isolated and rocky terrains. The name Heather paints a picture of a resilient individual, blooming in their own brilliance amidst the rocky road of life.
The name Heather originates from the English language and was first used in Scotland where the Heather plant prolifically grows. It rose to prominence as a feminine name in the late 19th century and soared in popularity during the mid-20th century. Its history roots itself in the affirming beauty of nature, engraining a sense of fascination and rustic charm in its bearers.
In terms of popularity, Heather enjoyed its peak in the 1970s and early 1980s in numerous Western countries. Heather Graham, a well-known American actress, and Heather Morris, an actress, dancer, singer, and model known for her role on the TV show "Glee", are both namesakes. Heather Langenkamp, famous for her role in "A Nightmare on Elm Street", further catapults this name into the limelight.
As for its associated traits, Heather often signifies a strong, free-spirited, and independent individual. One who is not afraid to stand alone, yet blossoms in her uniqueness, just like the plant. It's a constant favorite among parents seeking to encapsulate the beauty of nature in their child's name, granting an ever-familiar yet distinctive appeal.

Its my name and i beli've it is amazing, when i think of my name i think of the color green, i beli've the name is very calming and something that came out of the hippie era!
I am a heather and some people make fun of it when I was in school they would say heffer if you are a chubby kid the name can break you and most Heathe's have blond hair mine is dark brown red so I just don't think it fits me. but is is sexy I have been'told guys like it but alot of titie dancers have It'so guys might think Heathe's are easy.
my name is heather and to be different from all the othe's by heatherjo.
I have had mixed feelings about the name. It reflects my heritage (Irish & Scottish). But combined with my surname MacDonald, it is very common and I have had issues with that. But, people seem to love it and say It'suits me well. I am a blonde with very celtic (pale) skin. i've never been called heffer (at least not to my face ;)) People call me Heath and my family affectionatly calls me headherheadher...
Im a Heather, Dawn is my middle name. Born in 1986. The little rymes never bothered me but I always wished people could at least be more creative and come up with something new haha. I love my name as well, my mom picked it for me, therefore it must be amazing. I was really blond, then hair darkened to a sandy blond, always had the green eyes. haha. Born in feb.
I loved being named Heather. Through all of my school years I was the only Heather. i've had three friends name their daughters after me which is a very nice compliment. Sadly now that I'm married I hear more "mama" and "sweetie" than Heather. I'miss hearing my name.
My names is Heather Patricia<3 and i adore it... I have NEVER met another Heather Patricia or heard of one. I am a natural dirty blond but I have dyed my hair so much i can't even remember the'shade ha! But Heather is a beautiful name and any other heathe's out there are lucky to have it !!!
My name is Heather Michelle. I'm an artist. my natural hair color is blond but i dye it a lot. I'm tall and skinny with green eyes. I think my name describes me very well. And I absolutely love it.
My best friends name is Heather Lynn. I LOVE her name! i've been'trying to like of a nickname for her but I can't think of one that we both really like so can you Heather Lynn's on here help me❤️ (:
Heather is sitting behind me, I like her name, but I like mine better. Jemma - It's not even on the'site!
I am vintage Heather, perhaps one of the founding females in the Heather-name curve since I was born in 1980. I think the name is cool. I did get Heather feather how's the weather❤️ Or even black leather heather feather. I was a lone Heather in a plethora of Jennifers in my day. The BIG problem with Heather was when I spent a year abroad in France. The H is silent and the "th" is non existent in that language. Everyone said "Bless You" when I said my name. That kind of sucked, but otherwise. Life as a Heather is a garden of delight.
this is my name and i consider myself lucky to have a name that in all my years i have never come across anyone of the'same name. people usually pronaounce it wrong i dont blame them its the rules to the englesh language that dictates there error. what does bother me is when people look at my name and the'say kevin....c'mon people thats just lazy. as for pronounciation both E's have the'short sound like in ebenezer.
My name is Heather Ashley, and I guess I am not your stereotypical "Heather" I have dark hair and tanned skin and most people think that I dont even look my name. I'must admit it took me a while to learn to like, even love my name. But I'must say that now I do love it, especially growing up in a generation full of Crystals, Jennifers and Stephanies. I dont really have a nickname, no one can ever'seem to find one out of my name'so if my name does get shortened, its usually just to "H".
I'm a Heather too. i've only know one other Heather and she is about 30 years older than me, so my name has never been an issue of popularity. I'm Heather Hagen and have never heard of another like me so It's nice to be unique in that way. The only flaw with my name is It's initial. My full initals makes H.A.H. so my brother just calls me HAH! (said to soundlike he is laughing) It began by him mocking me but now It's just kind of sweet. i've been called Heather Feather before just like a few of you other Heathe's but that kinda wore off after High School. Kinda wish i could have a choice of nicknames from 'Heather' but the only one i've got is 'thea' simply because that was the first thing my nephew could pronounce when he was learning my name. I guess the'special aspect about 'Heather' is the fact that it can't be shortened and it is pretty enough and elegant enough to suit just about anyone. I think my name is perfect the way it is. Oh yer, latin for Heather is Erica so if anyone likes that name you could make a few nicknames from that.
My name is Heather Monique, and I really adore my name. I was born in 2006, and have blondish hair with green eyes. My mom told me that any Heather'she's ever met has been cool and nice(: Some people call me: Hyper Heather, Heather Feather, Happy Heather, Heathy, Edder (little kids), He-ate-her (lol) and "H". Occasionally people accidentally spell my name "Hether", but not often. I think this is a totally awesome name, and It's unique, like me. GO HEAThe's!!!
i've had mixed feelings about the name. It reflects my heritage (Irish & Scottish). But, combined with the'surname MacDonald, it is very common and i've had a few major issues with that. People do seem to LOVE it and comment on how well It'suits me. I'm a blond with Celtic skin (very fair). i've never been called "heifer" (at least not to my face ;)) Friends will occasionally call me Heath and my family affectionately calls me headherheadher...
My name is Heather Elaine. I like it. Very common to know at least one or two other Heathe's though. The Elaine is from my grandma. Born in1982
To the person whose boy is named "Barrett Wayne", my grandpa's name is "Wayne Barrett". Great strong name!
Hello. My name is Heather Jo. My father have me that name. I hated it growing up. And even'tried to get people to call me by my middle name. But it wouldn't stick. I only have known a couple of Heather's. I now genuinely love my name. I think It's pretty

I am Heather Nicole and i love my name i have blue eyes and brown hair i love the name heather
This is my name and It's ok! I get called the wrong thing a lot! It also cannot be shortened into any other "nick names" (like Lindz for Lindsay) or something like that!
I LOVE my name! I was born in '79. I think it is unique; I was always the only Heather in school. I think It's a great name; feminine & strong. It's easy to pronounce, and it doesn't solicit any teasing. My parents did a great job naming me!
It's not very unique most of the time, because sometimes I feel that it is too common or on the verge of becoming too common, and then I remember names that are way too common like Hannah, Emily, and Sara and I change my mind. Since Heather is a flower it makes It'sound a whole lot prettier :)
I love my name!! I don't find that it is very common today but i really like it. I like my name. Heather is a name I like. Do u know y I like Heather❤️ Because it is my name and i like it. Thank you ladies and gentlemen good day love heather (i like my name)
My name is Heather and personally I quite like it because It's unique and I haven't had the pleasure of meeting anyone else with the'same name yet xx my friends and family call me by a lot of names including "Hevvs" "H" and my 2 year old brother has always known me by "beb-eb" because he couldn't say heather when he was tiny xxx
I would have to say, that I really love the name Heather. Growing up I was always the only one in school with the name Heather. To this day 18 yrs down the road only met only 1 other girl named Heather.
the priest calls me kylie in front of 41 people i like it but it is inbarensing
my name is Heather Nicole i was the only Heather in my class i was born in 2002 i love my name my nicknames are heath and headger and headward
My name is Heather Lynne as well......and It's a great name! It's so original and pretty....people have told me they want my name. Any girl would be lucky to have this name. It's one of a kind! By the way...I am light brown with golden highlights (natraul of coarse).
This is my name, I was born in 2015, but most of my friends call me Donny. Ive gotten a bunch of compliments on my name and I love It'so much!
I am sat behind Jemma, and I too like my name very much. Sometimes I forget about it, but when someone asks me what it is, im always very happy to tell them. It makes me think of warm colours and pretty things. I shall enjoy it the whole time I'm alive.
I'm Heather! And it is a great name. But i do think most people think there name is great! Growing up people called me Heather Feather. But I begcame a preschool teacher and some of the children couldn't say my name and called me Feather. and long story short Feath became my nickname and i love it. Great name, every HEather I'met is great!
I'm Heather Noelle. I love my name now but when I was little, I hated my name until I found out they were Scottish flowers.
THis is my name and the only person who uses it in its complete form is my mother and only when I have done somethining wrong. I loathe it and find the'shortened version of my name (Pam) marginally better. But then I have no idea what I would prefer. Better the devil you know eh❤️
My daughters name is Heather Rea. My mother is French and her middle name is Rea. I still love it.
I was named Heather after my mother which caused a lot of confusion when I was a child and teenager. My family calls me by my second name, Jeannie, as well so that gets even more confusing. When I was in grade 5 my music teacher was teaching us a Scottish song with heather in it, then called it a weed. Everyone laughed. I have not liked my name'since even'though white heather is supposed to be lucky! I sign my family correspondance H.J.
I'm a Heather Lynette. Born 1984. i've never been comfortable with my name. i've always thought maybe It'sounds pretentious. Sometimes I think It's the addition of "Lynette" that makes me uncomfortable. What were my parents thinking❤️ I like Heather for other women. When I'meet another Heather I like the'sound of it. However, reading through these comments has breathed new warmth in me me for my name. Thank you, Heathe's:):) BTW...Blue eyes brown hair. Born in northern Ohio.
My name is Heather Danielle. I have mixed feelings about my name. My family often gives me the nickname of heifer. I like the meaning of my name, which means heather flower. I have dirty blonde hair and hazel eyes. I am short for my age.
Love my name Heather Delores. Hate Delores. Mother was going to name me Heather Dawn. Common name in the Caribbean in the 70's and 80's. Lots of black Heather's in the Caribbean.
I'm another Heather Nicole. I was born mid-May of '89. I have flaxen blonde hair, medI'm-blue eyes and pale-olive skin. I'm of European/American Indian decent. In high school I knew only of two other Heather's and, yes, we had our own clique but we weren't popular, rich or snobby. I didn't like my name when I was young and planned to change it but I changed my mind when I found out it was a neat plant. For the Heather in the Negative Comments section saying that Calluna Vulgaris is a weed, shame, there are no weeds only plants out of place. Almost every plant does something; provide food or habitat for beneficial bugs and other wildlife, accumulate nutrients in top soil, or repel harmful insects. Heaths bloom in the winter'spring and Heathe's in the'summer and fall for almost year round blooms. i've heard you can use the leaf and bloom and make a medicinal tea. Every living thing has purpose.
This is my name; Personally it feels a little too exotic and yet too indistinguishable simultaneously. While I'm the only person I know named Paisley, i've been called at least 22 names wrong, from "Lily" to "Casey" to "Daisy". Sometimes I worry It's a bit infantile, too.
Wow, thanks for the background, whoever'submitted the Dec 28, 2019 comment. I thought It'sounded very unique and knowing the background makes me like it more.
I'm Heather Anne and I don't know any other Heather Annes. I was born in the 70s and went to school with a few other Heathe's, but that's ok because everyone calls me Heady.
I love my name. I think its beautiful.Sure I had some problems growing up with people rhyming my name or calling me Hee-ther (Because of the area of the US Im in)they couldnt ever pronounce it. But regardless of all of that, I still love it!m
I love my name Heather. My third grade teacher's name was Heather, that has been'the only time I knew someone named Heather. I love the uniqueness of my name. I personally like being named after a flower. Like the flower, purple is my favorite color. Heather is such a wonderful name!
I'm Heather Margaret born in 1977 as well and aitch is my only real nickname . nice to know there someone just like me xxx
THIS IS MY NAME, i love it, best name ever if you ask me
i like my name cos im the only heather around .... im the one and only. everyone knows me by my first name not my full name.
I love my name! It just rolls off my tongue. My middle name is nicole and my parents probably could have done better I still love it! Oh and I was born in 2006
My name is Heather Jean and my name before I got married was Heather Jean Meadows. I used to think that Heather Meadows was corny, until my grandad called me shrub pasture field, and that was hilarious to me!
My daughter's name is Heather Renee and we love it! We haven't met another Heather her age yet, she was born in 2013. I love that nobody asks how to spell it :-)
I love the name Heather It's very pretty plus my name is Heather Dawn. Born in the 70's. I wish it would become popular again It'sure was popular back in the 70's kinda popular in the 80's and a little popular in the 90's it went down hill in the 2012's. People bring back the popularity in Heather❤❤️
Its my name and ive never thought of changing it... It's my name and its wonderfully heather
This is my name, and when I was younger I used to absolutely hate it, but now I absolutely love the originality of it. I always get compliments on what a beautiful name it is, and the reason my mum named me Genevi've was after the movie "Genevi've" in the 1962's, about a car, haha. I shorten it to "Gen" though, and my parents call me "Genna" which I hate, I'd rather be called "Gen" or "Genevi've"!
My name is Heather Nicole! I, too, have been'told I "look like a Heather." Reddish-blonde hair, very pale skin, grey-ish eyes.... I love my name, too!
My name is Heather Nicole...I haven't met many other Heather's, but those I have have all seemed to be named Heather Nicole. I find that inter'sting...
I am Heather Lynn, I can see that Im not the only one here! I used to dislike my name but after hearing the'story of my sister'standing up to my mother for trying to name me Rosemary! I just HAD to thank my sister and I have come to learn to love my name Its just great! My husband loves it too. I noticed how many mentioned that Heather doesnt have a nickname but I do, Hea. I love it also.
I am Heather, and was born in 1990. I'm the only brown Heather i've ever'seen. I have brown sling, dark brown hair and eyes. I'm half Filipino and half German. I'm little and petite. I'm 4 foot 11, 101 pounds. I'm not crazy about my name. i've been called ❤️he -ther❤️ by people from Africa, ot other countries. Also kids call me ❤️Miss Headed❤️ since I was a preschool teacher. My nick name is heifer'since It'sounds like Heather, but It's spelled heffer
My name is Heather Elaine. I used to really dislike it because it was very common when I was in school. I was born in 1988. Now I kind of see it as a brand of when I was born. My parents thought they were being original but didn't realize how trendy a name it was at the time.
Love, love,love-LOVE this name!! Not only do I love the way It'sounds, but I also love the way it looke spelled out. And I also LOVE for girls to have first names that'start with "H"!
I'm Heather Erin and I love my name! I get compliments on it all the time. I love that it is a pretty little pink or purple flower and I never had any problems with anyone miss spelling it. I was born in 1992. I think It's funny there is a moving called Heathe's. I do run across the name and I think It's fun, I don't mind sharing a name.
My name as well is Heather Elaine born 1983 always have loved my name and not blonde Burnett
My name is Heather Margaret, born in 1977, named Heather as my father is Scottish and Margaret was my Grandmothe's name. I am now nicknamed Aitch, I have been for that long now I don't seem to even answer to 'Heather' any more but I do still, and always have, liked the name. Even liked it enough to have the name as a choice if my child had been a girl!
Thats my name. I don't hate it, its okay. I was born in 1986 and there were always many Heathe's in my class growing up. It'seems more of a young person's name, rather than an older person's name.
My name is Heather Danielle. I was born in 2007. Unlike most Heathe's', I'm not blond, lol. I have dark reddish brown hair that get's golden brown in the'summer because of the'sun, brown eyes and light-tanned skin. I absolutely love my name~ No other names seems to fit me! & two posts below me is another Heather Danielle! :D Hmm, I wonder where the rest of the Heather's are, because I have only met one other Heather in person :/ I didn't know that Heather's were mostly blond, I think my name fits me perfectly, & no one has ever told me that my name doesn't fit me... In all, I love my name ^ - ^
My name is Heather. I'm not a big fan of my name, but I like heather flowers and feel some kind of pride that I and they share the'same name. Also I know a couple of Heathe's and like tchem all. I love flower names, they are so beautiful and I am proud to have one of tchem as my own. All my children have flower names: Marigold, Amaryllis and Hyacinth. So we are "flower family". My husband call us all his little flowers. I am a brunette, my hair is long and wavy, my eyes are dark blue, sometimes they seems to be a bit grey, at least my husband says that they are, my skin is very pale and I generally like gothic style and my clothes and make-up are always gothic, even'though I am not a rebellious teenager always feeling sad, like the majority of Goths seems to be. I am tall and slim and love heeled shoes. So I think I am not a stereotypical Heather :D Cheers for all Heathe's and heathe's.
Love it. I'm Heather Anne and wouldn't change it for any amount. I have a very Scottish last name. I'm frequently told that I look like a Heather. Sometimes, It's meant as a slam I think because I'm an attractive blond in my 30's, but I take it as a compliment!
Hurrah for Heathe's! I love this as my name, though I do think it needs to rest for a generation.
My name is Heather Jean and I was named after my Mother's only sister who didn't like her Christians names which were "Florence Heather" so she changed her name to "Heather". I just love my Aunt Heather and I can't remember any time I didn't like my name. I have a deep Scottish Ancestry. My Paternal Grandfather was once the Drum Major of Bundaberg Pipe Band and my Mother taught Highland Dancing. My Aunt Heather was also a dancer and later a Highland Dancing Adjudicator in Melbourne. After being away from my birth city for 34 years I have returned and now worship at a Presbyterian Church where a lovely elderly lady (whose husband worked with my Grandfather) saw my birth notice in the paper just after'she was married, liked the name and later named her daughter, "Heather Jean". I have since met the other "Heather Jean" who is a lovely as her mother. There were only 3 Heathe's all throughout my school days. There are quite a few who work/have worked in Education Queensland where I worked for 21 Years! Thanks to my parents for a lovely name. I had Tasmanian grown Heather as part of my Bouquet on my bible when I was married in 1985.
At times, I dislike my name being Heather because of all the things that rhyme with It'such as feather, heather, etc. But It's a pretty name, and there are no nicknames that are used for Heather, none that anyone allows to be used anyway, and that's good because I hate nicknames. Why name your child one thing with the intention of calling it another❤️
Not as popular today as it was in the'seventies, when Beatlemania was now over but Abba were now at the top of the charts. Heather Mills McCartney - now usually referred to as plain Heather Mills (her maiden name) or, more disparagingly, as "Mucca" - was born in 1980, the year before one of the Beatles, Paul McCartney, known as "Macca" and now Sir Paul McCartney, married his first wife Linda Eastman, a New York divorcee with a young daughter whose own first name is Heather (Macca's first wife bore him daughters Mary and Stella and son James in 1981, 1983, and 1989 respectively). After Linda McCartney's death from cancer in 2010, Macca met Mucca in 2011 (Mucca too was married once before but divorced) and they were married in 2014 before daughter Beatrice Milly (after Macca's aunt Milly and Mucca's late mother Beatrice) was born in 2015. It was the break-up Macca and Mucca's marriage in 2018 and Mucca's sordid past during her years as an Eighties glamour model (with the Essex girl Sharon 'n' Tracey type hair-do) coming out into the open which earned her nickname of "Mucca" (a play on Macca's own nickname). I think a name like Heather is going to be associated with Mucca for a long time to come and It's way, way to early for revival (consider other plant or flower names Hazel or Violet or Ivy or Daisy instead).
I was born in 1991 with a flurry of other "Heathe's", so sometimes I would have to go by "Heather J." with my last initial. Honestly, I have never been called "Heath" or any other'shortened nickname (my parents didn't want me to have a nickname) and I really appreciate that. My name'stands alone and has a unique sound. The only negative I have found is that'some people who are not native-speakers of English have a hard time pronouncing the "th" sound, so that it comes out something like "Hector" or "Header". :-)
My name is Heather June Louise. My father's family is from Scotland. Had I shared my last name you would know you can't get anymore Scottish than that! They are also very traditional. So I was named after the flower that grows on the moors to remind my family of their home. My middle names are my grandmother's. As a kid I hated it! But now, I am very thankful of the tradition and thought placed behind it.
My name is HEATHER LYNN and I used to dislike my name as a girl and wanted to go by my middle name because it was shorter, sportier, and sounded more fun. I realized as I got older I embraced my name because it is actually a natural name and you have to have energy to even say it. It may sound strange, but most names begin with consonants, but not breathy consonants like the 'h' in Heather. To properly pronounce it you have to use the breath. I was born in February, am definitely an aquarius, I am a lively person, enthusiastic about life, and give 110% to everything I do. I also have a passionate faith - I'm Catholic and find such peace in the deepness and richness of the faith. I could go on and on - but Heather Lynn, it a nut shell sounds very southern if you put a drawl on it - so don't nickname'someone "heather lynn" unless they're okay being country. A Nickname, for whatever reason, i've adopted is Hedu (pronounced either Hee-doo or Heh-do) by my grandpa and Heffer (not at all in a mean way or in any way referencing my appearance :) but kind of like a loving way lol if that makes any sense).
hey my names Heather Paige Best and i luv my name im really hypper and crazy ive got blue eyes and im a brunette and im really pale and my heather means a flower and that flower is purple and my fav colour is purple lool xxx and i live in england,london,essex yeah boi im an essex girl lol haha xxx
My name is Sommer. For as long as I can remember people have called me Heather. i've even been called Heather by people that i've worked with for years. I think It's very strange, but inter'sting. I guess I'must look like a Heather.
My name is Heather Julianne. I have only ever met two people with the name Heather, so I like it pretty well. My friends call me Heza & my brothe's call me hadie (hay-dee)
My name is Heather Nichole and I was born in the 80's. I don't know to many people named Heather. I guess I like my name it is kinda unique and feminine.
I am named Heather and I love it. I think that it is feminine and pretty. The only problem with it is that there are no fun nicknames (like the earlier poster'said--Heath is about it).
I love the name Heather.I have a daughter Heather Elizabeth.
I was born in '78, and it must have been a popular name that year! When I was in 3rd grade, there were 4 other girls named Heather in my class. We had to go by our last names to keep confusion down! I like my name very much! Thanks Mom!
I'm Heather'stephanie and I am growing to like my name. I was the only Heather at school for years and have met more as i got older. I was born in 2003 and I have naturally verk dark brown hair - now died red but not blond! and hazel eyes. My nicknames vary on who is calling me by it but i've got 'Hev' 'Hettie' 'H' 'he'sy'
My step-daughters name is Heather Renee & she was born in 2009
my name is Heather Violet, and I love my name! everyone says I look like a Heather, because i have brown hair and light blue eyes. The combination Heather and Violet really fit too. There's only 3 other Heathe's I know.
I like it, I think it is pretty, common yet not too common. However, I think it will seem like an old lady name 30-40 years from now. Ruth was a popular name at one time and declined, and my grandmother was named ruth so I considered it old fashioned. I think all the 70's and 80's babies like myself are going to have the'same experience now that it appears to have been a trendy name. Stil cool, and I love its connection to nature. Oh, yeah I'm blond too. lol
HI'my full name is acually Heather Nicole Taylor and there were about two people that'said there name was heather nicole i didn't know it was so common! =D
Heather Lynn here, born in '75. I also have a very common last name of Scotch/Welsh origin, and due to its common-ness i've always disliked my name (Heather was the 7th most popular name for girls in the US the year I was born). Growing up, I had a hard time finding things with my name on it like keychains, bracelets, etc, not because it wasn't made, but because it was always sold out. It is so common I stopped responding to my name when called, as I went to school with 11 other Heathe's at the'same time. In college, there were 3 other people in the area who shared my full name, and I even received some of their mail, including medical test results. i've also been'the victim of identity theft involving my name alone (not bank info, etc) 3 separate times throughout my life. And when'the movie "Heathe's" came out, forget it! However, I do like it much better now that It's not as common as it used to be. What gets me the most is that one of the reasons my parents chose my name is because they didn't know anyone with it growing up (they also have common names for their generation).
This is my name, and thank God I can punctuate! It'seems that Isn't commen among Nadines.

Hi, my name is Heather and I hate the fact that every Heather I'meet has blond,I have black hair.
Im only 14 and heather is my name i love it no one say's to wrong and everyone says it fits me! And its not a boys name either/
My name too... In my class of 74 there are 4 Heather's..thats alot
I was born in 1993 and so far I have only over met one other person with the name. I like my name, its unique and you don't hear it very often - much better than Gemma's or Paige's or some other 'hip at the time name'. Although I am a Heather Barbara - so my parents didn't do so well with the'second part...but then I get called H anyway so I guess I don't use the beautiful name I was given - not fitting for a tomboy really.
my name is Heather BreeAnn, and growing up I used to think it was rather plain, and got frustrate that I couldn't get a nick name easier. however, as i've gotten older, I really have grown to love it, especially after learning the meanings, myths, legends and cultural heritage associated with it. and for the record, yes I DO look Scottish. I'm fair skinned ( pretty much allergic to the'sun. can't go out for more than 2-3 hours on a cloudy day without getting burned), i've got grey eyes and a muddled mess of reddish, blondeish, brownish hair that gets lightee in the'sun. short and strong. only known 2 other heathe's ever.
my name is Heather Lynn. I'm not sure if i like it to much, alot of people don't really use nick names its Heather.. and It's kinda boring. To me anyway. The only nick name i got was, when my brother was younger, he couldn't say 'heather' so he called me 'Hebby' and ever'since then my mom has called me that..
My name is Heather Michele but im not the only heather in my school her name is Heather Nicole. Its actually a really common name!!!
this is my name!!! I never knew any one else had it. lol
My name is Heather Nicole Wyman. If people call me something else besides heather, It's usually heatherbear. I have naturally dark brown hair, currently with blonde highlights, and I have brown/hazel eyes.
My name is Heather Nichole and I love my name! Heather means flower, and the first time I found them at the garden center and smelled the'strong honey scent I fell in love with the plant as well. It is also said to have been used by Kings since ancient times.
my name is heather and i love my name! i use to hate it because It'sounded to "soft" and "pretty." but i love it now. i have not met that many people with my name. everyone always told me how pretty my name is. and i am not blond! i have brown hair.
This is my name, however I spell it this way...Anjannette. I often have to correct people on spelling and pernounceing it. i've never really liked the name but I often have people tell me how pretty and unique my name is. Since no one can ever'say my name correct I have been going by the name Angie since Jr. High.
I was the only Heather I knew until I was about 8 when a new Heather came to our school and I was so annoyed! Now I work with two other people called Heather which gets very confusing.
My bff heather marie and my sister heather lynn dhe died at birth . If I have a girl I will name her heather rose
Heather Lynn Kurzawski is my name. I have always hated my first name. To this day I still hate it. But I do think it needs to rest for at least 100 years or so.
I'm Heather Marie born in 1985. I'm a brunnette with brown eyes. It's funny that I'm not a blonde with blue eyes since I'm Swedish, Norwegian, German and maybe Scottish. i've always loved my name! The more I research my name the more I love it! It is so amazing all the uses for the Heather plant and there are so many variations. There is even a legend of Heather. It will give you an even greater appreciation for your name. The only thing I haven't liked is the nick-name my sister gave me while we were teens (Heffer). The other nick-names weren't bad. Heather Feather. Heath Feath. Heathey. Come hither Heather. Heather Heather how's the weather❤️
My Name is Heather Nicole I was born in 86. So ummm yeah the one from 94 owes me some royalties lol Needless to say I'm not the only Heather I know. Having said that other than being called heffer a few times as a kid It's not a bad name. My mom calls me Haddy or Lucy (I have no clue on why either of those).
I'm a 'Heather' - born on the Yorkshire moors in August - hence the name. 'Heather' can't be shortened - friends called me - Heather Feather- and then - I'married a 'Feather' - an old Stanbury name - family connections with names from Wuthering Heights - but Oh dear - most non-English speakers can't pronunce it - and here in China I am 'heater' and in Portugal it ued be be 'ether' as in the dope stuff. BUT - It's a good conversation starter anyway. Heather's a tough little flower that only thrives well in high places and loves cold places and it has a perfume of the wind-racked moors. Are all 'Heather' people tough like myself - but, sadly It's blooming beauty only lasts a short season.
My name is Heather Julliette... I think it is very unique, both the first and middle.. A flower! How Beautiful! Growing up I found it was somewhat common.. Nowadays its pretty rare that I run into one.. As for Julliette, Was named after my Grandmother, though her name was spelled Juliette.. Never have come across another.. I love my name!
Im called Heather, and I cant decide whether i like it or not.... Its my mum's maiden name. I think my main issue with the name it that it cant be shortened to anything, or have a nickname I can use. all of my nicknames are embarrassing and only used by family. This should be an issue, but grew up in a class where all the girls were called Izzie, Lizzie, Ellie, Steph or something like that. It was just Heather...
My full name is Heather Nicole Taylor everytime I'meet a Heather, I ask what's the middle name cause my best friend now step sister her name is Heather Nicole as well..Bahamas that's so awesome by the look of the chart were all around about the'same age..Hans our parents sure were trendy in the late 70's thru the 80's
i've always liked my name but HATE being called "Heth" or "Heath". When I was in high school I sometimes went by "Feth" just because there were so many other Heathe's but now I'm back to just "Heather" and It's fine...at least people don't ask me how to spell it.
My name is Heather Lynn and I would have to say that I love it! Oh yeah I am blond!
My name is heather'smith and I absolutely love my name! It's not as common as other names and it makes me feel unique and like I am my own person. People always take a liking to my name and I love the fact that my name is also a type of flower.Also It's always cool to say your name is in the dictionary and heather is!
I'm Heather Michelle-- born in 1986. I think my name is pretty. But hey, i've had it for 40 years so it was either love it, or change it.
My name is Heather Michelle born in 1989. Long blond hair, blue eyes and petite. My personality is opposite of any of the Heathe's from the 2001 movie. I'm carefree and love nature...much like the character in American Horror Story (Misty Day).
I am Heather Jane. Born in 1971. I was the only Heather in my grade school from grades 1 to 8 and I was also the only Heather in my high school as well. Some people would ask me if Heather was my real name. I didn't like my name when I was young because it was so different. I wanted my oldest sister's name. She was Pam. I am not blonde either.
