Find me the perfect name?

[popsicle1984]

I've realised that most girls names I like fall in to 2 categories:

Old fashioned nature names - Pearl, Clementine, Iris
European girls names ending in A - Athena, Flavia, Valentina

I thought that maybe if I could find a name that fitted in to both categories it might be the perfect name!

can you think of any that fit in to both? I did think of Flora (old fashioned, nature, Roman goddess of flowers and spring and ends in A!) but... well the margarine thing holds me back!

So there's your challenge!

Marking place

Estella?

Hera (if only I'd been brave enough to use this one!) or Alexandra?

Helena
Rosa

Seraphina. If I had another dd I would use the name, it is so beautiful.

Or Sophia, Talia, Natalia
:)

Thalia? (pronouncing the 'h')

Anna
Anya

Anastasia
Monica
Irena/Irina (sp?)
Veronica

Rita
Nina

Both can be given "proper" longer names

I like this brief. I'm seeing the map of Europe in my mind

Hmm, don't like Estella, Hera or Helena (Sorry!)

Love Rosa, definitely prefer it to Rose or Rosie!

Love Seraphina too but I think it would be shortened to Sera... which is Sarah, which was super popular for my age group and I therefore find it boring!

How is Seraphina a nature name? Just wikipedia'd Seraphina, Seraphine and Serafin and nothing!

When I say nature names I mean ones that are clearly nature names, I think I like to have a visual!

Clarice/Clarissa
Frida

None of these names seem to be obvious nature names! Well not to me anyway!

Oh. I missed the nature bit

I know a Seraphina who is shortened to Effie

How about Juniper or Willow

Rosina

Nigella!

Juniper and Willow aren't old fahioned, European or ending in A! It's hard to fins names that fit all the categories!

Lilliana

Pandora

Veronica is good.

Marina
Margarita
Rosanna, Rosalba, Rosetta
Sylvia, Silvia
Dahlia
Prunella
Nerissa

Selina

Rosa?

Rowena (is it from rowan?)
Delphina
Marguerita
Selena
