Floral Names

My DH and I are expecting our second child.

We have decided on boys names though we're struggling to come to an agreement on a girl's name.

The only thing we have decided on is that we do both really like floral names.

So far, we have Lily, Rose or Primrose.

Middle name will be Evelyn.

Any preferences? (Even if you're not usually a 'flowery name' person).

Thank you!!

What about Rosie? Lovely and flower themed plus they could drop to Rose as they get older?

Daisy?

Lily is nice but very over used and a bit bland imo.

Rose Evelyn sounds lovely !

Ahh Rosalie is very nice, thank you! Have considered Iris and Ivy but husband not overly keen. He's an awkward so-and-so. When we were thinking of girl's names with pregnancy no.1, he was so against Evelyn (which was my fave) but now likes it as a middle name.. Hmm

Love Lily and Rose but think Rose Evelyn goes bests have you considered Iris?

Primrose is very tough to carry off (nickname Prim or Primmie? Perhaps not helpful)
Lily is a bit ubiquitous
Rose is pretty but Rosalie, Rosamund are better.
