Why not make it a full bouquet

I think having another flower for a second name would be nice. Such as

Iris Zinnia
Iris Willow
Iris Camellia
Iris Honeysuckle
Iris Marguerite
Iris Angelica
Iris Clover

But vowel names are nice too

Iris Ottilie
Iris Aurora

Iris Felicty? How many syllables has the surname got? Will a middle name 'scan' nice?

jeanjeannie · 08/08/2008 13:22

My DD1 is Iris Katharine.

I also love May (my mum's name) so we used it as a middle name for DD2 to go with Verity....but I think it'd work great with Iris.

Tell your DH that my OH wasn't sure about Iris but now he loves it as we get so many nice comments....even when he takes her to the timber merchants ....he's is a builder ...so he's allowed!!

I work with an Iris Ann - but she is known by both names, so I suppose techncially the Ann is not a middle name.

Agree that two vowel sounds go nicely. Think Iris is lovely & unusual too.
