I know all of you have seen Laurrie's pictures of my seedling. She's done a get job of growing her as well as the others who are trialing her. I need help with a good name for her as I'm new at this. So put on your thinking caps and come up with a good name for me. The winner (USA only sory I can't send her out of the states) will receive a rooted cutting of her (Amber Rose X Butterfly.) The contest will end Friday morning at 9 AM and the winner will be announced Friday night after 9PM.
Contest time
I love Ada Belle!!! I have a rooting already and if I win (ho-ho), I'll give the prize to someone who had Katrina or Rita losses. It's a good, meaningful name for a beautiful brug!!!
LOL Sherry, i can't stick my name on this Brug. I always hated my name. LOL
My goodness, Ada, I LOVE your name and it's so appropriate re Isobella, Rosabelle and others like Patricia, Forever Morr, Ruthie, Monika, Susanne, and I know there must be many more named for hybridizers and their family friends. I Love your name, Ada, it's wonderful and fits you perfectly and your brug. I hope I didn't scare others off. Please join and suggest other names, here in Arky, I call her: QT - but she is much more elegant than that...
Raspberry Ice , Ada's Dream , Kandy Apple , Raspberry Swirl

My thoughts, it looks like a nice cherry color, the color is deep and extreme; the color jumps out at you.
So my suggestion is, 'Cherry Bomb'.
As SherryLike mentioned above, "I'll give the prize to someone who had Katrina or Rita losses". With that same thought, I would call this Brug a "Hurricane Survivor or Katrita"! She rose to the challenge and met it! Beautiful!!
I love contests, Ada. I now must think. It needs to be special to reflect not only the beautiful brug but the special person you are.
The color is so bright and at the same time so soft. I say she should be called Strawberry Parfait
Wow that is beautiful! I don't know much about brugs, but how about 'Belle of the Ball'?
Gosh, it is so pretty, I can't stop looking at it!
Congrats, Rachel

Or.....Hoochie.
Strawberry Sherbert
Adagirl
Strawberry Sundae
Cheeky
LOL Carol. Tracey loves that kind of name. Vixen, Harlot.........
I think she has a lot of the color from Amber Rose besides the Butterfly color so I opt for:
Amber Butterfly
Jeanette
Katrina's Wings
I Miss New Orleans
Strawberry Wine
Sweet Swirl
Swirly Girl
Sparkling Rose
Love Above
Butterfly Kisses
Butterfly's Dream
Ada's Joy
That's 10. I lurk in this forum, but this is my first post. Please excuse me if any of these ideas are already in use.
mg
Butterfly Rose :)
Pink Dreams
My choice is STORM CHALLENGE
Doris
How about: Strawberry Delite or Butterfly Delite
How about Blushing Bride? The shape reminds me of a long gown. :)
I like Bettydee's 'Adagirl'! Very clever! But, since you don't like your name(which I understand because I go by my middle name for the same reason) maybe not what you'd want...
Just looking at the blooms, it made me think of desserts!
Strawberries n cream, raspberry sorbet, strawberry cheescake, sangria swirl, cherry slushie, strawberry milkshake...
Regal red, october skies, red swirl, candy stripe, ...
I'll keep thinking...
Sangria sunset, sorbet sunset, surprise sunrise, sunrise/sunset skies, october sunset, red parade, rose parade, scarlet skies, scarlet sunset or sunrise, scarlet swirl,

Hahahaha, Kin, I'm taking Swirly Girly back if she doesn't win, lol!!!
She really is beautiful, Ada. I'd love to have her, but can't think of a name that is any better than several of the ones that have already been chosen. My favorite breakfast is the Strawberry Delight Belgian waffle at La Peep's (a great breakfast place here), so I probably would have picked either Yardbird's choice or Picabo's Strawberry Parfait.
Cherry Pop
CanCan
MerryRose
MaryRose
Rosemary
*Sorry-if any of these names have already been used*.
She reminds me of those HOT PANTS 'some' girls used to wear!
Wow, all these names. It's going to be a hard choice. This is the first chance I've had this morning to check this out. I've made three trips to the vets and two trips to school. Now I need a nap.LOL
Kin, do you want the job? LOL
