Not looking for opinions on the names I like BUT am looking for more ideas based on those names.

I have 7 other children but I can’t put their names here as they would be way too outing as a couple of them have quite unusual names.

So I like:

Otto (this is my fave)
Buster (Dhs fave. I love it but not sure if I could do it tbh Grin )
Percy (I’ve always liked this and it goes well with my youngest sons name.

Not sure on girls names, it has to be floral. I’m a florist and all my girls either have cat names or flower names (so outing Grin )

Let me know your ideas Smile

If you like less common flower names, what about Marigold?Smile

You might as well just tell us the other names for comparison.

A florist with a cat called possum and 7 kids (all named after cats and flowers) is pretty outing 😂

Namechanger0800 · 01/12/2020 07:36

What about Lilac or Lavender?

Otto is ok - don't like the others
Think you are pretty outed already - can't be many florists having their 8th who's girls have flower/cat names - what are your others called?

MikeUniformMike · 01/12/2020 09:48

Blodwen - Welsh, means white flowers - not really, it's 'flower'+white/blessed. It's dated and not very pretty, how about Florette. Yes, it really is that bad.

Ffion - welsh, means foxglove

Some great suggestions on here.

I love that someone has a pug with three of my favourite names 😂 I also have a pug but he’s called Mario.

Finn would work really well, looking at your kids' names.

TheVanguardSix · 02/12/2020 22:50

Or even Rex.

BigusBumus · 02/12/2020 22:54

Tansy and Jonquil

AliceMck · 02/12/2020 23:00

I liked the Octavia suggestion. Also like Percy, I’ve never heard of it mentioned for penis though 🤷🏼‍♀️. Buster I personally wouldn’t choose but if you like it ignore other peoples comments.

Lavender
Iris
Heather

I always loved the name Lenore, but English people pull a face at it because of the fabric softener.

I think Percy goes really well, BUT if you are middle class M&S shoppers or live around them I'm pretty sure the Percy Pig link will be made.

What about Amos? And Rose?

Enko · 03/12/2020 08:28

Love Buster also like Percy and Otto
