What's your fave nature-related name?

I've been on a nature kick the last couple of days ...

I quite like Rain/Raine, Sky, Ocean.

When I was younger I swore I'd name a boy Canyon Blush and I also liked Lake, Briar, and Laurel.

Any others to inspire me?

Robert Dyson, after the garden centre.

Also like Composta for a girl and Trellis for a boy.

Hey, if you had a Blossom, her middle name could be EndRot

Budgie?

Why could I not think of these before we gave DS a really dull name Angry

Thzumbazombiewitch · 26/10/2011 15:40

No Fishpants, I think we managed to talk her out of that! [hgrin] Can't remember the full name - it had a nature aspect as well, she was after calling him Winter or Ocean or somesuch. Will hunt for the thread and report back!

Oooh yes Zephyr is lovely. Did she end up going for Beauden in the end? Confused

Sage & Linden I quite love.

PMSL at Frogspawn! Surprised you didn't think of Frogmella [hwink]

My favourite used to be Willow but I've gone off it somewhat.
Now I think it's Zephyr - a name I tried to foist on Arizonagirl (to stop her calling her DS Beauden) but she wouldn't agree [hsad]

JiltedJohnsGhoulie · 26/10/2011 15:30

Sorrel, only know one and she is very cute.
