Nature names

I've been thinking about names for my as-yet-theoretical dc2 (planning to start ttc in the next few months). Dd is Rowan, I would like to call dc2 after a plant/tree/flower/animal like the big old hippy that I am. For a boy dp likes Ash, have also considered Robin, have no ideas for a girl. Ideally I'd like something normal enough not to stand out at school.

Any ideas?

I love Linnet for a girl. And Fern. And Hazel.

Fir, Lake, Blake, Forrest, Robin and Hawk for a boy

Summer, Hue, Opel, Leif, Willow and Fern for a girl.

Also you could use a river's name such as Donny or Seven or of a mountain like snowdon?

Linnet is beautiful. Also like Raven for a boy. I don't have enough boy nature names on my list...

How about Gaia, covers all of nature, mother earth.

I'm thinking very much along these lines too. We're currently thinking Ivy, Willow or Violet (Grandmother's middle name) for a girl, or Robin for a boy. Also love Rowan, but a close friend's DS already has that name.
