This multi-faceted name has plagued me for quite some time.

I immediately think of the bird. But I suppose if someone were to say it in a context where I knew they weren't talking about the bird, I would think of the Dove body products.

My first thought is bird and then Prince's song When Doves Cry enters my brain.

If my mom says "Dove," I know she means dark chocolate. Otherwise, I picture the bird.

When I read the title of this thread I thought there was some new irritatingly preachy Dove lotion ad involving word association, so I guess the product side of it would be my answer. Honestly, I think I associate the word with all three in equal measure depending on when it gets said and by whom.

I thought of the cosmetics brand,so i picked that. But seeing the actual name for the bird did throw me off guard!

When I saw the title of this thread I thought someone was trying to bring back that irritating word association thread again.

At first reading it, I think of the bird. But if someone were to actually say it or something, I think of Dove Products.

yeah, depends on the context of the use of the word, but most often I think of the soap/lotion/whatever products

A picture of the soap with the bird logo is the first thing that popped into my head. Then the actual bird. Also the song "Black Dove" since I watched it on youtube yesterday.
