Hi, I'm expecting my first baby in May ( though it is end of May so could go into June )and if it's a girl I'd quite like a 'flowery' name. Would like it to be seasonal too so does anyone know any plants that flower in May/June? I really like Iris but can't think of any more? Except bluebell!! Possible middle name Christine ( family name ).

May makes me think of May in Flower. And Bluebell woods. Sooo May, Bluebell?

Ooh I like Blossom, it has nice connotations, but I suppose I can't name DD after a My Little Pony..... Like Delphine too
