There are plenty of girls names which are flowers or months of the year but I can only think of one boys name remotely similar, Basil. Really not keen on this one.

We called my daugter Beatrice but call her Bea and symbolise her name with a Bee. I thought it would be nice if we can find another name where we can do the same. Any ideas boy or girl.

Cheers

cod - its for fun not necesarily for reality. We shall probably choose something really plain.

I just thought that I couldnt think of any names like this and others may know of some.

Brook is a boy's name too, just spelt without the e.
We had a boy called Storm in our class a few years back.
