I'm looking for girls names which link in to 'green' somehow. The colour, not environmentalism!
Any ideas? I can only think of Jade....

Flora

Oo, Sorrel is lovely... Will put that one to DH.

Our best friend has a Willow and a Poppy, and Flora has been vetoed by DH already so those are out I'm afraid, although I do like them lots.

Hazel eyes are brown with green flecks. Or green with brown flecks.

....or just tatoo the words "bully me" on her forehead

My eyes are hazel, they are light brown with a yellowy tinge. Could have hints of grey or green, not compulsory. Not sure why they're being co-opted onto a thread about green things, surely shome misunderstanding.

Hazel is a nice name though (and tree, green leaves, brown nuts, yellow pollen).

No its not

Laura and Lauren are connected to the laurel plant, I believe.

rubmeup · 19/03/2012 16:32

Well that put an end to that! Thanks for all your lovely suggestions ladies...

Who rattled your cage, rubmeup?

OP - so, your DH agreed to move off Juno, then?! Wink How did you persuade him in the end?

I know of someone who called their DD Ilana as her (the Mum's) maiden name was Tree. It's a lovely name.

You could play a bit fast and loose and go for trees which flower in spring / early summer, like Magnolia, Jacaranda, Cherry...
