I would love to have some suggestions for alternative names to our current shortlist - I feel as though there must be some others out there to consider.

For girls we like:

Florence
Rose/Rosie
Rosemary

Boys has been much more challenging for us, but we are keen on:

Archie
Felix
Joseph/Joe
Rowan

I would also like middle name suggestions. Our surname has two syllables and begins with a W.

Also we live in Scotland, and are quite fond of Gaelic names as well as nature-themed names and are quite willing to have unusual/quirky middle name

Gregor, Lorne? Brea/bria (saw it on another thread on here but can't remember the correct Gaelic spelling, means beautiful apparently.), mhairi, morven? Rosemary is nice.

I love gaelic names, and a fair few of them do incorporate nature references as well. here are some of my favourites and their meanings:

girls:
Cairine (pure)
Muriel (of the sea)
Rhoswen (white rose)

boys:
Brom (raven)
Farriss (rock)
Torin (chief)
Fagan (little fiery one)

hope that helps!
