Sibling for River...

We have a little girl called River but we're struggling to find a name for baby number 2.

There are a few names we like that are also along the nature theme which is DH's preference but I favour more traditional ("normal") names, so we're struggling for options that we both agree on.

Boy and girl names needed please :)

Rowan (for either sex) would be great imo.

Rose, Jasmine, Flora, Lily, Hazel are all nature inspired names that are also quite traditional. Maybe Rowan for Heath for a boy.

River is beautiful.

Rowan and Willow are also lovely and would go well with it.

Also Rose, Iris, Jasmine (or Yasmine)

If you go too traditional after River it might seem odd: are your names simple or more out there?

Whatever you choose don't make River the outlier.

Congratulations Flowers
