Additional information about the name Poppy:
From the flower, the name Poppy peaked in the early 1900s, returning to favour in the 1990s. Poppy flowers can vary largely in colour, but are commonly identified as red. This led to an association with death, and may explain the adoption of the poppy as a symbol for rembrance of WW1 victims. Poppies also facilitate the extraction of the narcotic resin opium, leading to associations with sleep.
