Nature names to go with an already nature-y surname

Trying to find nature names that would go with a surname Barley.
I love Meadow and Willow for a girl and Acre for a boy but I think they might sound a bit silly with that surname. Any opinions/suggestions?

Are you naming an elf or a person?

I wouldn't go with Acre Barley! Then his name would just sound like 'an acre of barley'.

I think the girls' names Meadow and Willow are both fine with the surname Barley, because they don't, unlike acre, sound like a phrase together.
