Name for sibling of Sequoiadendron?

[claudethelad]

I'm expecting a second child and struggling with name ideas. Not sure of the gender yet but would like something unique that you don't find often. My husband is a botanist which is why we called our daughter Sequoiadendron (Sequoia for short!) and we're looking for something similar that's plant related.
Thanks in advance for the help fellow mums!! :)

Agapanthus.

What the fuck am I reading? What is going on those aren't names!!

From a very old Alex cartoon (probably still in the Independent at that point).
Alex and Penny are discussing names for their prospective offspring.
Alex: "The native American Indians have a great tradition of naming their child after the first thing the mother sees after the birth."
Penny: "We're not calling them 'Private Birthing Suite."

Sedum

My husband is a gynaecologist, we've called our two daughters Fanny and Vulva.

Cracking me up this thread !

Piss-the-bed is an old name for the dandelion.

Hyphenated first names could be the next craze, I reckon.

Peptostreptococcaceae or an old fave of mine Clostridium Difficile.

Cringe.

Pretentious.

Is this a joke ?

Of course it’s a joke!

And Piss-the-bed can be handily shortened to “The.”

I'm amazed no one has suggestion the classic 90s name of Princess Consuela banana-hammock yet, Nn Cici.

I went with Vax and Karcher for my 2.

How about Sticky Willy for a boy?

If I were drinking tea it would have been spat all over the screen!

Ragwort. Beautiful name and gender neutral.

It was on our shortlist, pallisers

in fairness to you, it is the Archie of the IT world. Well done you for going for something a bit different.

My dh is a health and safety manager so naturally we called our sons Iosh and Nebosh

Those sound weirdly Old Testament.
