Love the idea of a flower name, however lots I don't want to use as I know people with children with the name.
Can't use Poppy, Daisy, Willow, Rose, Iris.
I like Lily but looking for some other suggestions

My favourite flower names that aren’t on your list are Violet, Primrose nn Prim/Posy/Rosie, Jasmine nn Jazz/Minnie, Rosemary, Alyssa and Cassia. I’d go for a flower/tree/herb that you love… I really like the name Lily, but personally not keen on lilies themselves.
