I love Laurel

TattieHowkerz · 24/10/2015 19:34

Hazel is lovely, and non-faddy.

Tirfarthoin · 24/10/2015 19:35

Technically Dara is a boys name but it would be lovely on a girl. Means oak I think.

Tirfarthoin · 24/10/2015 19:36

Hazel is lovely, so is Laurel

Camellia? I loved t when I was pregnant with my youngest but OH didn't like it.

kelda · 24/10/2015 19:37

I have a Hazel. It goes well in different languages and people always say what a lovely name it is. The two Hazels I know were lovely - one a florist, the other a Goth scientist, and the name suited them both perfectly.

lozengeoflove · 24/10/2015 19:38

Ooooh Camellia you say Thoughtful

Laurel too close to Laura - a name by which a third of my friends are known Smile

I actually love Chrysanthemum after the children's book. :) Plus you could use Santhe (like Xanthe) as a nickname.

Hebe

lozengeoflove · 24/10/2015 19:50

Rowan is beautiful, but I think of it more as a boys' name.

NorbertDentressangle · 24/10/2015 19:51

Hebe is just too similar to HeebeeGeebees Grin

wiltingfast · 24/10/2015 19:52

Love Hazel Smile

Rowan can def be a girl too, another favourite of mine!

I also love Calla

simonthedog · 24/10/2015 19:52

I used to like the name Zinnia on the Darling Buds of May, I think all the girls had plant names.

lozengeoflove · 24/10/2015 19:53

One of Ivy's middle names is Rose, so I must discount all the (beautiful) rose associated suggestions sadly.

Lilac

I know a few girl Rowans and a few boy Rowans.

Helenluvsrob · 24/10/2015 19:55
