Iris - although my answer is 100% biased, because it's the name of DD1 (12). I love the meaning of it ('rainbow'), and well, think the name is just beautiful.

Iris. It's on our very short list too.

Mumzywumzy2 · 03/03/2018 21:34

Daisy! Elegant and pretty.
Iris makes me think of a frumpy lady

Littlelambpeep · 03/03/2018 21:37

Going by the ..if your child was to become a high court judge.. Iris

Daisy makes me think of (won't say)

Daisy. I can't imagine a child named Iris, only a 60+ year old woman.

SmashedMug · 03/03/2018 21:38

Iris sounds like a little old lady name but not one of the old lady names that suits a young person too.

Neither?

fatbottomgirl67 · 03/03/2018 21:42

Got to be Daisy
I have one. Iris is a bit spikey whereas Daisy is happy, smiley and friendly

LorelaiVictoriaGilmore · 03/03/2018 21:43

Iris.

Iris

I don't think 'Daisy' is a very nice grown up name, and children eventually grow up.

If it's a flower name you're after, Linnéa or Linnea is lovely. It's Scandinavian in origin; the name of a small pink mountain flower. Grin

I love iris, it was on my list but i ended up with 2 boys lol

DazzlingMilton · 03/03/2018 23:27

Iris. Love it

AnyaMoondial · 04/03/2018 04:38

Oooo this is hard! I love both. I think I'd go for Iris on balance because it sounds more swishy and sophisticated, but they are both fantastic.

Sophronia · 04/03/2018 04:41

Iris

iggleypiggly · 04/03/2018 04:42

Iris. Beautiful name.

TheButterflyOfTheStorms · 04/03/2018 05:06

Iris could do anything.

Daisy can run a hipster coffee shop.

MaryPoppinsStoleMyHandbag · 04/03/2018 07:55

Iris is beautiful.
