What’s in a name, really? Sometimes I look back and wonder what I was possibly thinking with some of the names I’ve given my Blythes – but the idea of having to come up with a new name stops me in my tracks from coming up with something new.
My very first Blythe was a Cappuccino Chat (she’s an RBL) that I named Sophie. If you’ve been reading BlytheLife.com for a while, you may recognize her from Love, Sophie (her very own column) or various other posts. I’m not sure why I named her Sophie, I really couldn’t tell you right now. I do know that I bought her first and then named her. Which was the opposite of what I did for Blythe #2 (Belarus, a Love Mission [EBL]). Sophie was followed by all the rest of my dolls, but she will always be the Queen Bee around here.
What is the name of your first Blythe?
She is a Natasha Moore named Pavlova
I first is a Tea for Two I call Mia.
A Mademoiselle Rosebud named Ashley.
Mine is a Simply Sparkly Spark called Beau, which I later extended to Beau R. Garde, because her hair made me think of the scene in Willy Wonka when Violet Beauregarde turns into a blueberry haha
My first Blythe is a Simply Mango named Mollie Noel.
My first two Blythes arrived on the same day. I have a customized Asian Butterfly encore I named Mollee and my poor attempt to customize myself Casual Affair I named Tash.
The names I give to my dolls usually tell something about them. For example, five years ago I bought my first 2 Blythe dolls: a Neo and a Petite. My Neo Blythe is a Simply Thumpty Thump and because her hair is a light purple colour, I named her Violet. My Petite Blythe Pure Punthic’s name is also based on her hair colour and her name is Cerise.
My first Blythe was a secondhand Prima Dolly Ashlette who I named Willow (after my favorite character from Buffy).
A factory girl with bright yellow, almost greenish hair which inspired the name Chlorine.
When I first started collecting back in 2001/2, I didn’t name my dolls. When I came back to the hobby in summer of 2015, I named my first girl, a Lorshek, January. I love that girl!
