My mother went to school with the 7 daughters of an avid gardener, all named
after flowers. Pansy, Violet, Rose, Petunia, I can't remember the rest, but
it got a bit odd near the end. No fruits, tho.

The actress Blythe Danner, Gwyneth's mother, stated in an interview I
believe it is more common to name children after fruit in the United
Kingdom. (More or less what she said.) I've met a few American women named
Cherry, but no other fruit names.
How about it, oh British friends? Are you using lots of fruit names over
there? How about nuts?
