Meaning & Story
An English adjective meaning tending toward dreams or having the quality of a dream — suggesting a soft-focus, gentle quality of consciousness, the particular experience of being somewhere between waking and sleeping.
Dreamy is a name for the pet who lives in a slightly different, softer version of reality than everyone else. They are always comfortable, always half-asleep in a warm patch of light, always gazing at something invisible with an expression of profound interior satisfaction. It's the name for the long-haired cat who seems to be permanently mid-dream, or the giant gentle dog who has achieved a state of being that the rest of us can only aspire to. Dreamy owners understand that a life of peaceful contentment is a worthy ambition.
