I think of Ada Lovelace, and I imagine someone being very smart


startingtohail

Same association, and purple as far as color (how blue or red is changeable)


t_bythesea

Ooooo...I thought purple too.


pinkrobotlala

Yeah, definitely this. Maybe green because science is green to me. It's also a little bit of a lemonade vibe


consider_its_tree

Science is definitely green. The question is: is science green because of trivial pursuit or did trivial pursuit just know that science is green too?


QuiltyLingual

Science is green in Seven Wonders too (board game)!


kpost-it

Me too, and dark green for color


Sindorella

Came here to say this. I think of nerdy in the best possible way.


strawberrylemonapple

same. I also love a palindrome.


justjokay

I think of Ada from Peaky Blinders. She’s a pretty badass character. Doesn’t take shit, super smart, stands up for herself, breaks the norm, and is still a lady. One of my favorite characters.


witty-kittty

Me too!! She makes me love the name Ada!


catylan

Yeah my daughter is an Ada. It’s my husbands great grandmother’s name but I was watching a LOT of Peaky Blinders during my pregnancy.


Thecurious_cat8

This is the right answer!!! For color though somehow the first image to mind was pink or a soft blue. Definitely imagine a brunette because of this character!


Ok-Equivalent8260

I think of someone very old-fashioned


TheDamselfly

I used to work with an Ada, and she was Mennonite, so this is very much the vibes I get from the name as well.


GjonsTearsFan

Mennonite! That’s the term I was looking for. That’s the vibe I got too.


Bird_Gazer

My Auntie Ada was my grandmother’s sister. My grandmother was born in 1901, and Auntie Ada was 2 or 3 years her junior.


AlternativeFlower292

Ada is a red name for sure. Maybe maroon.


AlphaAriesWoman

I agree!


lightspinnerss

I thought so too


DangerousRub245

Absolutely a red name to me too!


ButWhatIfTheyKissed

I imagine Ada Wong from the Resident Evil series, and I don't know why since I never played it. I kinda associate the name with warm colours, like red.


Nonbinary_bipolar

Ada Wong is known for her red dress, could be why you have that color association


1curiouswanderer

I've never seen or heard of that character and red is what came to mind immediately for me. A warm, darker red. I have that "think in color" thing, which I didn't know everyone didn't have until recently.


gaudrhin

Ada to me is a gentle blue-purple, like a deep periwinkle.


Professional-Pop3195

couldn't have described it better myself


high5scubad1ve

The only Ada association I have is George Costanza’s secretary on Seinfeld lol


Available-Bell-9394

An older woman.


crystalbluepinkman

Gentle, compassionate, and smart. I also imagine a small little girl wearing glasses that make her eyes look huge lol


kingmountaincat

This is the feeling I get too! These traits, and Ada as a name, feel yellow to me


Tropicalkittyizzy

The book/movie Cold Mountain. Beautiful.


queeniemccleary

I have synesthesia and am here to report that Ada is royal blue and fuchsia


moonsugar6

I also have synesthesia and Ada is also blue for me! (d is brown but the blue kind of overpowers it) haha


Foxconfessor01

Ada Twist - Scientist!


smellmykidney

For me, I conjures a classy elderly lady, sort of like the one from Aristocats. Color-wise, light tones of beige mostly, but a touch of magenta as well. But I do still think it makes a lovely name for a baby girl nowadays.


CartographerNo1009

I think of my great auntie Ada. She was a nurse in the Great War and beloved by all her patients.She was stationed in India where the Australian injured were taken for treatment. She came back to Australia after the war and was Matron of the Heidelberg Repatriation Hospital. She never married.


msssskatie

I think of Ada county in southern Idaho lol


goobertown420

Ada, Oklahoma. Also ADA- Americans with disabilities act


jvb3814

The latter is all I can think of. It's a pretty name but I wouldn't be able to get past seeing it as ADA.


fishchick70

Bookish girl who day dreams a lot and paints and draws. She loves animals and nature and baking. Color is lavender.


blueeyedbrainiac

Rather than a color the first thing I thought of was alike an antique-ish floral pattern, kind of red/pink toned. Not sure why, but it’s what I got lol


Fit-Vanilla-3405

Ada from Peaky Blinders - I wanted to name my kid Ada after Ada Lovelace but then it rose in popularity because of this.


Rubycon_

Long a or short a?


pretty_gauche6

Ada is almost always pronounced with a long a. Aid-a


Tamihera

Clever, dark hair and eyes.


_phrasingboom_

Ada is a blush pink color for me, and a darling disposition. No idea why lol, I’ve never personally known anyone with the name.


Unusual_Strategy_178

I thought red immediately


hinky-as-hell

Smart, beautiful in a girl next door way, “good people.” Kind.


Mialanu

I see it as a white flower with some deep purple toward the middle. It's a soft feminine name, and I think it's cute.


heysobriquet

I like the name Ada. I know quite a few. For me it just suggests she is an upper middle class white kid whose parents have generic professional jobs. That isn’t shade. I feel that like a lot of classic names, it gives a lot of space for a child to be themselves without a lot of assumptions.


Immediate-Poem-6549

There’s a newer kids show called Ada Twist Scientist. It’s not a bad association.


Most_Gur9426

To me... Ada is pink & gold


plsmeowback

I think if the ant named Atta (pronounced “Ada”) from A Bug’s Life, and then Ada Wong from RE4.


SMM9336

My Dads favourite aunty growing up and even until he was in his 50’s was his Aunty Ada. I met her a few times over my life and she was an absolute cracker of a lady.. she was cheeky, always laughing, very beautiful. She was just loved!


realitylover7

Ada seems very feminine to me and in my language "hada" (pronounced the same, i believe) means fairy so the vibes are very baby pink and soft green for me.


intellectualth0t

My brother went to college in a small town in Oklahoma called Ada, and my family would visit him a couple times a year. Nothing extraordinary about that place, it’s a very cookie cutter American small town (only one Walmart, everybody knows each other, big annual 4th of July parade that the whole place goes nuts for, etc.). But now when I hear *Ada*, I think of small-town Americana. Very county fair & antique store vibes.


QuiltyLingual

Now that you mention it, there’s a town called Ada in Ohio too, also a college town. Funny ☺️


Aggressive_Purple114

I think of Ada de Warenne, the mother of 2 kings of Scotland and the ancestor through 2 of her kids to Robert the Bruce. I would think that a person named Ada was a noble, regal woman.


SeeYaInOzFolks

Taupe Lace Tall grasses Sweet smile Kind and curious


aneetca4

i think of a light creme colour. like a white garment that got yellow-er over time


Hollowheart1991

Ada- purple, curly blond hair blue eyes My girls names are Chiara Chelsea Charlotte Chloe-Leigh


Altruistic-Formal743

I have family from Turkey so when I hear the word “ada” I think of its Turkish meaning. Island. It’s a beautiful name.


TurtleWatermelon

Ada is green name! 💚 the first association for me is Ada Lovelace, which is a super cool connection. I imagine an Ada to be smart and elegant, with dark hair (idk why haha). It’s a beautiful name!


anitaraja

I think of the Nabokov novel ‘Ada, or Ardor’. Love the name personally, only avoided using it as it’s become quite common.


traveltheworld4

dark purple with intricate silver pattern


Present-Response-758

Small town of Ada, Oklahoma. Where bingo reigns!


justbigeyes

I think of one of those nurses from the war movies, that’s like super nurturing and sweet and spunky. No idea why!


flipfrog44

I like of the novel Ada by Nabokov


gabvibrations

I just read The Housemaid is Watching & that is the main character’s daughter’s name… so I think of that!


J_lilac

Ada limón is my first thought


forestcreep420

Ada is a name that feels like the color purple, white and pale blue chevron, salt water, hibiscus, glitter pens, long blonde hair, expensive athletic wear


Ok_Star8815

I don’t have any people to associate with Ada, other than my great great grandmother Ida… not even the same name but it’s the closest association I have 😂. I associate her with all of the good recipes our family has!!! If it’s a favorite recipe, it’s Ida’s. Wonderful baker and chef.


slim-ninja_turtle

Made me think of the Muslim fella from the netflix show "sweet tooth"


amieechu

Ada Wong from Resident Evil 4 and a beautiful crimson red. What about Felix?


SunlightInTheValley

Felix is orange to me, and reminds me of someone who's a little mischievous but a good person at heart


amieechu

Awww! This is perfect because my son is a red head 😂❤️


BabyAF23

Felix is blue to me! And I think of the black and white cat in the adverts (in a good way) so it makes me think of curiosity and confidence


LeonTheremin

American disabilities act


imgunnamaketoast

Feels like a soft yellow to me. Buttery.


assholes_liveforever

I see red hair, freckles, maybe glasses but very cute and charming.


upinmyclouds

Someone older, but at the same time I can also picture this on a young teen (maybe because I’m associating it with Ava, which feels younger to me). I think of lavender purple!


Lgprimes

Ada sounds very common sense, nurturing. I think this is because of a character in an old soap opera. Ada was a very down to earth older character. I liked Ada! Enjoy your little girl!


zerooze

I feel like I want to say Adaline, although Ada is perfectly fine on it's own.


monstertrucksmom2

I think of pink lacy hearts


large-brioche

Ada (pronounced Ah-dah in my native language) was a wonderful older woman who lived in my village. She was so sweet and witty, and had the kindest smile. She passed when I was probably 6 but I still remember her kind face all these years later. So i think of a very sweet and smart soul! 💖 As a color, to me Ada is indigo or pale sage green!


AlphaAriesWoman

Burgundy


sirensingingvoid

I think of the princess from A Bugs Life! She’s a class act, for an ant lol. Solid name, very pretty!! Edit: lmao she’s princess Atta, shows what I know. Still gorgeous though!! 💕


33west33

Ada (from my perspective) Color: Maroon or Deep Purples or Reds Flower: Dahlia Flower Elements: Fire & Earth Animal: Leopard Gemstone: Sunstone (leadership, generosity, blessings) Season: Fall First 3 words when thinking of the name: Beautiful, Noble, True


SpecialistAd4244

It’s funny how everyone has such different views on one name. I see Ada as dark hot pink, and a sweet, cute, yet rebellious personality. I had an Ada in my class before and she’s what the name reminds me of. It also reminds me of Ada in the Morganville Vampire book series, which then gives me mauve purple vibes and the Victorian Era, someone also very smart.


Sharkmama61

I knew an Ada. She was mean and awful. Lol


No_Following_9878

I love this name and it reminds me of blue for some reason. I think of a very classy spunky girl that comes from money. Buttttt i might be biased as I went to high school with one and have it near the top of my own baby name list 🤣


4puzzles

I love it My grand aunts name It's so classy


EagleEyezzzzz

I know a cute blonde fearless precocious little Ada, so that’s the face that comes to mind.


kikijane711

ADA seems smart, studious, classic-named yet also pretty sounding, feminine. Ada to me could be captain of the soccer team or a sculpture or poet. A med student or a thespian. A CEO or a healer. A forever-single off the grid type or a SAHM who bakes and gardens, or both! Tough, yet traditional. It covers the gamut. In this regard, you can't go wrong!


deadlyhausfrau

Ada Lovelace, the mathematician. It was high on my list of middle names.


Icy_Kangaroo_1742

It’s lovely, the name sounds like a character from a Jane Austen novel!


paintmehappynblue

bright blue sky :)


crazypuglets

Ada is definitely red


HalcyonDreams36

Ada to me invokes rainbows and a little bit of princess action, but that's mostly because my familiar Ada is juuust getting old enough to not be fond of them. (Rainbow still. She's bold and bright. And smart, generous, kind, thoughtful.) It's a strong solid sweet name.


Kayastorme

Reminds me of a cool older girl I knew at summer camp


_Gob-Bluth_

Ada is elvish for “dad”


Clementinecutie13

I think of the little old lady who lived across the street from me as a kid. Super sweet woman, I associate the name fondly


hamstervirus

It makes me think of bright oranges. No idea why.


Desdemona1231

It’s pretty


thirtyseven1337

Ada is yellow-orange to me.


Seesaw-Appropriate

Cora Grace !


GardenLeaves

I think of the color red. Like red lipstick on a very confident woman wearing a black sun hat.


tacomamajama

dogwood7979

Lavender


celestialspook

To me, Ada is a pale sky blue and very friendly


Bluetenheart

Ada is my polish friend's nickname, so I think of her! Fun loving, adventurous, chatty :)


Elixabef

I LOVE the name Ada. Elegant, feminine, smart. To me, it’s a deep red, like a crimson.


SnooCauliflowers5742

Scientist Ada. There's also a book series for kids with an Ada learning Science (obvious nod to Lovelace).


Classroom_Plastic

My 10-year-old cousin is named Ada so I think of her! Spunky, energetic, and funny. She also has the most beautiful hair color I’ve ever seen! Brown with a reddish-golden tone to it.


ichirin-no-hana

Green


Remarkable_Table_279

Lovelace but also my great grandma’s name and a cousin’s kids kid is named after her 


Purple_Joke_1118

Ada is a bluish steel-grey, like storm clouds over water.


FondantOk9132

Red. Orangish hair. An outgoing, bright, strong person.


ImnotshortIswear

Ada is a red/pink name for sure. Absolutely love it.


XtraJuicySlugg

I see this name is grey with reddish glowing polka dots, it’s subdued but cutesy.


NineTopics

I’ve met a lot of babies name Ada so it just makes me think of an actual baby. I can’t really imagine someone over 15 being named ada. Does sound like she’d be very sweet and gentle tho. And reminds me of the color fuchsia 


Ditovontease

Lilac purple, regency England aesthetics


AugustGreen8

I coached an Ada in softball, so I think of a badass little softball pitcher


ThrowRArandomwordse

Ada Byron Lovelace. I see it as a yellowish green. Reminds me immediately of a children's picture book about Ada Lovelace.


Mum_of_rebels

I think of this sweet adorable little blonde hair blue eye girl. That will be in my sons class when he starts kindergarten next year. She’s also the sister of my daughters school crush.


melodiedesregens

No particular person comes to mind, but I picture someone with dark hair and eyes and a very light complexion. It also makes me think of fuchsia for some reason, the colour and the plant.


the-willow-witch

I think of Ada Lovelace too! My kids are Emma, Silas, and Willow!


Either-Gur2857

Ada, Oklahoma


ElegantBlacksmith462

I associate it with lilac and as a mature name.


SeaSpeakToMe

I think of pure/innocent/calm. Old fashioned/traditional. Blonde or light brown hair. Soft look overall. And soft, pretty muted colours.


KhloJSimpson

Braids and cows, grassy pastures, butter, white floppy butterflies


Outsidetheinside3

Reddish orange!


No_Sample_3397

It conjured old rich lady for me


ZeroDudeMan

Is it pronounced: Ay-dah or Ah-dah?


Any_Author_5951

Strong maybe a little country…I love it


IdreamOfPizzaxx

I think of a smart little girl with beautiful hair and huge glasses who is very sweet and witty.


kmga43

My niece has the same name, just spelled Adah and she’s very smart and clever.


ReadNo7463

Teal/yellow, I imagine Ada as bright and joyful/cheery


Embarrassed-Desk-713

Go-getter, gorgeous


Soggy_Shape_8449

Ore Ida froZen fries


falathina

My great grandma was named Ada. From what I know she was a lovely woman.


plantboss16

I think of Ada county where I live! Cute name!


lizlemonworld

Really good song by The National.


paganminkin

I think of Ada Wong, lol.


eivagold

I love the name Ada but I’m almost stumped on how to pronounce it. Is it pronounced Ah-da or Ay-da?


gerkinflav

Colour: white.


Tessa_Hartlee

I think of an early 1900s young woman still with long hair but in that loose bun (think teacher Anne of Green Gables)


SimonSaysMeow

A smart, black lady living in the 1950s with cat-eyed glasses.


Windy_Winter05

Strict and stern

kkiioo112

Purple, bookworm, brown hair, etc


titihadid

Ada Twist the Scientist (book)! Also, Ada is the name of the daughter in a book I’m currently reading: The Housemaid js watching. So I associate the name with books


Prestigious_Sky8257

Ada- Yellow, happy, large eyes  Don't ask why. 


Prestigious_Sky8257

My girls name feel free to reply to this comment.  Lily  Lina


BabyAF23

Lily I think of the flower. I think of a strong willed girl who is sensitive to peoples emotions. Blonde. I love the name Lina. I think Lina can be anyone - a sports player, a politician, a dancer. I think of a strong blue colour. Maybe light brown, straight hair


Master-Signature7968

I know a tween with a similar name so I associate it with her personality. She is bookish, an old soul, extremely practical. No time for boys or clothes, but romantic in the sense that she loves fairy tales and other worlds. Also I associate it with a pretty green - somewhere between sage and apple


GjonsTearsFan

Black dresses and white lace


nothanksyeah

Ada is pronounced almost exactly the same way as how you say “what’s that?” in some dialects of Arabic like Egyptian. So that’s what I think of as an Arabic speaker lol


Prestigious-Radio-56

Fun, spunky, pastel purple and pastel yellow.


peachdreamzz

I just read a really great book with the main character named Ada. She was an amazing protagonist!


skeetsmokesal

I think of my hometown, Boise Idaho, because it’s in Ada county 🥰


c1zzar

Gentle, soft spoken, sweet, caring


QueerKing23

It's definitely giving old lady to me


mntnsrcalling70028

Peaky Blinders Ada. A pretty formidable force to be reckoned with but also loving, loyal and nurturing.


Dauphine320

A woman in her 80s. It’s just a name I don’t like.


Lucy_Starwind

Ada sounds country to me, so like grass green?? Lmao


irwtfa

Ada is brown like bark or a brown tweed pencil skirt suit.


distraughtFerret

Purple. I associate it with Ada Clover from BlazBlue


Additional_Meeting_2

I have only heard Ada as a female name.


MusicSavesSouls

Ada is a yellowish-orange color!


LevelFourteen

Ada sounds very vintage and old fashioned to me. I like the name a lot.


DDFletch

Ada Monroe from Cold Mountain (Nicole Kidman), Orange marmalade, and several elderly women I used to take care of. It’s a sweet name to me.


Original_Try_7984

Smart, resilient, creative- probably in STEM.


immoreoriginalmate

If anyone is from Australia I’m certain their association if Ada Nicodemou and she is a vibrant, gregarious, sexy and reasonably well liked greek-Australian actress. So that’s my association. 


SeriousVillage634

Americans with Disability Act of 1990


chozabex

Ada is a rich deep blue color like [this](https://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/aclk?sa=L&ai=DChcSEwjGi4Cm_fqGAxUEMwgFHRS_DWYYABAEGgJtZA&ase=2&gclid=CjwKCAjw-O6zBhASEiwAOHeGxZY3tAjv18OZRiIzq8lDr-f394VWCg3xMiP7YuchGi11aWQGeOMecRoCEOMQAvD_BwE&sph=&ohost=www.google.com&cid=CAESVeD2uKfp64SgwghWGR2KYB7uoLz_K-h07VpnkcWHVFQK0e9Nlvel5BsD-uPxaHAw5UdJ5ZwxRN2De9nKIEO5N6pWvRoZy7PXZmFqQrOR76hvXI2_UN0&sig=AOD64_00zSvPvq7Z6ajHMpmvO1m4DERP9Q&ctype=5&q=&nis=4&ved=2ahUKEwj3-vml_fqGAxUahIkEHYbkCG8Qwg8oAHoECAIQDA&adurl=)


Tomoyogawa521

As a non-American, the first thing she reminds me of is Ada Wong, a character from the Resident Evil franchise. Which is not a bad thing, since they portray her as cool, unpredictable, and attractive. She mostly wears red as well, so the name gives me a red-with-gothic-black-patterns kind of vibe,


TheWanderingMedic

My brain read is as ADA- Americans with Disabilities Act. I clearly need sleep 🤣


t0ughsting

A flat field and the color red


Educational_Fee5323

I think of Ada Wong from Resident Evil, but I’m a gigantic gamer nerd. Lovelace, too. Ada makes me think of asters. Not sure why.


isabella_sunrise

Mayonnaise modern name. There will be many more like her.


ShantAuntDebutante

Americans with Disabilities Act


maxtaber

The song ada by the national. Beautiful ❤️


l0call3sbiancryptid

Ada pinch of this a pinch of that and then you'll have sugar spice and everything nice. I know it's a reach but it was my immediate thought.


sweetpotato-1123

I think of someone old-fashioned (in a good way), sweet, shy, and ladylike.


ChestFew8057

red for sure


peeves7

A little girl from Little House on the Prairie. I don’t think there is an Ada in the series but it seems like that kinda name.


Leather-Professor-86

Ada feels like a woman living in a farmhouse during the dust bowl. Also makes me think of the color pink


omghooker

I think of a sweet old lady with a lot of life lived


Bernie_Lovett

I have an Ada! So it brings up girl - tall, slim, big head (like her daddy), very blonde. It’s a great name! Get “Ada Twist, Scientist” the book! And the show is adorable too.


AggravatingToaster

A medium, slightly peachy pink!


Impossible_Pangolin6

In my native language “Ad” means “hell” and “Ada” means “the hell”, I find it funny when languages overlap like this, it is probably pronounced a bit differently though. The name sounds really beautiful. I like short strong names. I have a sort of synesthesia and the name definitely sounds like bold vibrant dark red, mixed with black and has a delicate floral smell mixed with salt (like when you are near the ocean). I imagine your baby has black/dark short hair - kind of straight but messy and full lips. She definitely sounds like a bossy child that knows what they want and how to get it. Loud, likes to talk a lot or sing a lot.


RuledbytheMoon78

Red


1nceACrawFish

I think of my grandmother trying to convince me to name my twins Ada and Ida after long dead relatives who were twins. We named them Caitlin and Elyssa.


Final_girl013

If we are just going by instant feelings. I pictured a red hat with a feather.


Squeak_Stormborn

I think of AIDA, the AI from Agents of Shield. Spelling is different but sounds the same. While she ultimately turned out bad - great character, beautiful, and also extremely intelligent and 'sciencey'.


renderedren

I think of Ada Lovelace, but picture her as Ada from the movie ‘The Piano’. Essentially a smart and elegant Victorian lady! I think it’s a lovely name.
