mmmmmchocolate - you haven't given any feedback for a bit - what do you think?
sorry, i always come to threads too late, but i just wanted to suggest a few anyway...
did you know there's a beautiful delicate pink flower called Jennifer? how about a tree instead of another flower - Hazel or Willow?
Do you know it's a girl, because for a boy you could follow the 'nature' theme with trees Rowan or Ash, or a bird - Jay or Robin.
Let us know Grin

I think Violet and Ivy are just the best girls' names ever, absolutely love them cece....but also think Poppy and Holly 'go' together really nicely...

Hausfrau, I did realise that Rowan was a tree but it's still horticultural. And branching out as you said. Snort.

Love triffid too though not sure if thats not more masculine.
We're going to have a flower name for a middle name if this ones a girl, Nia Rose.
I too think more than one flower name is a bit twee, reminds me of Rosemary and Thyme though of course one of those was a surname.
