The correct definition of "connotative" is:
going beyond a literal meaning to suggest meaningful images, insights, or associated ideas.
Additionally, it can also refer to suggesting a positive or negative meaning of a word apart from its dictionary meaning as a broader interpretation. However, the first response you provided captures the essence of connotation particularly well.
