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

I love Rowan for a girl (to rhyme with cow-an)

Sorrel is beautiful. That is my mum's all-time favourite name.
