I really like Robin/Robyn.

Elowen is nice too but I’m not sure if it’s a bit of a mouthful. Plus we’re not
Cornish.

OH likes Ember and Briar (I’m not a fan of Briar, sounds too much like Brian 😂)

Any other suggestions? Something different and pretty but not too ‘out there’

It's a type of finch.

Having 2 one syllable names would be really nice I think.
Quite a lot of names now are very frilly. I think a one syllable name stands out in a good way @Sweetpea1989

Laurel
Cassia
Iris
Willow

@Sweetpea1989 I think it would be okay if you had a longer middle name? My brother has 2 1 syllable names and it sounds fine Smile

Thanks for the helpful replies...!

I quite like Wren, our surname is one syllable
so don’t know if two one syllable names together sounds quite right though? Quite punchy I guess.

I love Wren! Also Hazel, Olive, Clover and Rowan

worstwitch18 · 03/05/2020 12:00

There's a million flower names

  • Rose, Poppy, Lily, Iris, Jasmine, Violet, Peony, Daphne, Holly (maybe that last one is more for December babies!).

Ember I think would get confused with Amber a lot.

Elowyn/Elowen is quite nice, but as mentioned will probably get shortened to El/Ellie or Win/Wyn/Wynnie.

Other nature names:

Angelica
Bryony
Fern
Fleur
Hazel
Willow
Jade
Ngaire
Olive
Rosemary

Some of those a bit more out there than others!
