Flower names please

[MummyLovesSadie]

I'm struggling to find a middle name for a girl & I was thinking along the lines of a flower inspired name. Not something totally off the wall, but a bit unusual & definitely not Lily/Daisy/Poppy/Rose or anything of that ilk.

All suggestions welcome.

Rosemary
Iris
Heather
Jasmine

Lavender, Iris, Ivy, Holly, Petal, Blossom, Willow, Rowan

Violet, Blossom, Petal, Heather, Iris, Jasmine? I think all of those are lovely but it's hard with flower names, there are so many crazy ones out there!

[scurryfunge]

Honeysuckle
Hyacinth
Primrose
Blossom
Clover
Lotus
Pansy

[tummytickler]

What is the first name it needs to go with?

Hazel
Blossom
Dahlia
Juniper
Marigold
Rosemary
Fern
Meadow
Heather

[MummyLovesSadie]

Rosemary makes me think of garlic & potatoes, Lavender reminds me of Harry Potter, Petal - Jamie Oliver has that for one of his daughters doesn't he? Blossom - teen sitcom from the 90's, I love Willow but already know one. Also love Violet but it's a bit close to the word 'violent' for my liking!

Did I mention I'm really hard to please??!

Keep 'em coming!

[MummyLovesSadie]

Hyacinth Bouquet....

[SE13Mummy]

Hebe?

[MummyLovesSadie]

The first name is quite a plain two syllable name beginning with E. Sorry I'm one of those superstitious one's that just daren't reveal it 'just in case'!

[scurryfunge]

Calla
Fleur
Marigold
Flora
Camelia
Myrtle

[MummyLovesSadie]

Love marigold but it reminds me of rubber gloves, also love clover but all I can think of is the spread - ditto flora.

Why do so many names have to have unfavourable associations?

[Smilehighclub]

Bluebell. Or is that a bit geri Halliwell.

Have to say I love Daisy but was vetoed by dp due to its popularity.
