Alternative to Willow?

I really want to name our daughter this but Dh is having none of it ( tho he gets quite faint during the births & agrees to anything on his recovery so if all else fails I'll take advantage of that! ;) )
Can anyone who's a lover of Willow offer any alternatives?

I do LOVE the name Willow though. I'd just go for the getting your husband to agree whilst you're giving birth option :-).

Love stella.
Problem with willow is if the child turns out to be substantially proportioned!
Why not call her Catherine with catkin as a nickname? If willows are your thing?
