My friend is due this week, don’t know the gender, and is desperately looking for names to go with sister Primrose / Prim. Thank you!

Any flower name will be pretty to go with Primrose but maybe a bit twee imo.

Katniss

Sounds too much like Cat piss.

WhoaJayShettybambalam · 24/02/2024 18:29

Petunia or Elspeth for a girl
Barnaby or Rupert for a boy

DibbleDooDah · 24/02/2024 18:28

Ned for a boy

Lois for a girl

Goldwakeme · 24/02/2024 18:28

Definitely Marigold.

SallyWD · 24/02/2024 18:27

Primrose and Dorothy goes beautifully. I initially thought Marigold but I think Dorothy is better.
As for boys: Henry, Angus, Jude, Edgar

Alltheyearround · 24/02/2024 18:26

Violet or Willow, Eden or Iris or Penny for a girl or Aurelia (means golden if she wanted a yellow theme!).

Elliot, Benjamin, Ellis or Oakley for a boy.

Do come back and let us know what she chooses, and good luck for the birth of the baby. I'm sure the fairy godmothers of MN would love to know.

Mirandawrongs · 24/02/2024 18:22

My grandmother was primrose - prim
sister was Dorothy - dolly
brother eustace - stace
