I know it's been done before but am on phone and searching is a nightmare so would love suggestions.

The three I love but cannot use:

Rosa - surname issues
Hazel- already taken
Primrose - too twee and dh won't even consider it

Lark?

Yes, Linnet is lovely, it's my cousins name :)

We had the same idea for our daughter so decided on Eden. Never met another and she's 2 and 9 months. Am pregnant with number 2 and looking for nature names for a boy (already have a girl's name that I'm not sharing). It's harder for the boy's names.

Do stars / constellations count as nature? There are some fantastic constellation names out there. DD was nearly called Lyra, and there were others which I really loved too which I've now forgotten.
Aurora?

Quite like Heather.

When you say nature, do you mean plants? Or do you mean anything at all connected with nature?
