I am pregnant with my first child, I don't know if I am having a boy or girl at this point. My favourite name for a girl is Posy. I also love Peony but someone very near me used it so I won't. My OH hates Posy and there is no way he'll ever agree to using it if we have a girl unfortunately. Is it really that awful? I like flower names in general, Violet, Rose and Daisy are all lovely but I feel Posy is more original and less common.

Similar "feel" to Posy but less cutesy!

I'm not a fan, makes me think of ring a ring of roses (which is about plague) and an an insult my teenage sister uses about other girls who she thinks are fake (I.e she's really posey, like always posing and flirting). I generally prefer stronger names though so it's a all just personal preference. Rose is lovely
