Nature Name for DD2, help please!

We are expecting DD2 in early April.

DD1 is Hazel.

DH would like another loosely based earthy/nature themed but not too matchy.

He has come up with Celeste (means heavenly). I can't decide, what do you think??

I have thought about:
Iris/Ivy: too trendy? Also think too matchy with Hazel.
Poppy/Daisy/Rosie: too cutesy and too popular
Stella/Estelle/Violet: I love DH hates.
Heather: too matchy with Hazel.

Any other suggestions?
What do you think of Celeste?
Middle names for Celeste? I was thinking:

  • Celeste Elizabeth
  • Celeste Opthelia
  • Celeste Verity

Thanks!

Hazel and Celeste sound beautiful together.

Also LOVE Rowan Drama sadly DH has vetoed and our surname ends in -an and is also 2 syllables so it might not go brilliantly with that.

DD1 was almost Willow, then I started to worry it was too trendy! Definately along the right lines there!

I love Rowan as a girl's name.

What about Erica/Erika - it means Heather, but is a little more unusual, like Hazel.
Or Fern/Fearne
Or Willow

Erika is my favourite of these, but there are loads of nature names to choose from.
