First name with Iris as middle name

[QueenOfThePumpkins]

DH and I have decided on Iris as a middle name, but aren't sure what to put in front of it

We like nature based / floral names and have thought about

Violet Iris
Amber Iris
Melissa Iris (close to being ruled out as wouldn't want it shortened to Mel)

None of them are quite hitting it. Any suggestions?

Hazel Iris
Coral Iris
Willow Iris
Juniper Iris
Tabitha Iris
Robyn Iris

Ottilie Iris
Abigail Iris
Bethany Iris

Bluebell Iris
Jade Iris
Summer Iris

Emerald or Hebe?

3 syllables sound best to me!
Harriet Iris
Elodie Iris
Rosalind Iris

Hazel Iris

Penelope Iris?

Hi,
Violet Iris is lovely x

No real suggestions but reading this list I'm struck by how many suggestions are flowery names. 2 flowery names in a row seems OTT to me

I think two flowers is one flower too many, but each to their own. I like Iris for a first name though!

My niece was Emily Iris

Rosalind

Why have you ruled Iris out as the first name?

Given that Iris also refers to the coloured part of the eye I would avoid using any name thats also a colour (Violet, Amber or Hazel, for example) as it sounds like you’re naming an eye colour.

We’re considering Iris as a first name if DC2 is a girl, I love the name.

I wouldn’t use two flowers eg. Violet Iris, Rosa Iris.
Longer names seem to flow better.

Madeleine Iris is gorgeous.

Effie Iris
Edie Iris

Cynthia Iris

Our little girl is Orla Iris. Orla means "Golden Princess" and you probably know Iris also means rainbow, so she's our pot of gold at the end of the rainbow - especially pertinent for us as she was a rainbow baby x

Violet Iris is far too rhymy.
Chloe Iris
Sophie Iris
Molly Iris
Penelope Iris
Emily Iris
Lily Iris
Jessica Iris

I think Iris is better for a first name but from your list I love Violet Iris. Violet Ivy would be nice too!

Two flower/plant names in a row is pretty unfortunate.

Iris is beautiful, don't cheapen it with another flower in front!

Lots of nice other suggestions though. Of your original ideas I like Amber best.

Iris or Violet as first names. Amber or Melissa as second names.
