Clover and Flora

[abittoofat]

If we have a Flora, can we also have a Clover? or is it too much butter?

@SummerWaves

Trying to make a butter pun but the margarine for error is too big 😭

😂😂

I do quite like the names, but won't you feel like a knob (of butter) OP?

Roll me over in the clover, roll me over, lay me down and do it again. All together now...

Are there even apprenticeships for milk maids any more?

'Court, all arise for Queens Counsel Flora X' or 'passing live to the chief virologist, Clover X'

Or 'the cutting edge graphics on this campaign are EPIC; tonight we talk to the chief designer, Clover X'....

It's fine if you're naming a pair of calves.

How about Ottilie (butterly)

Clodagh?

I adore the name Clover. Is this still used as a spread? If not, I would call my daughter this if I had a Flora already.

Lovely separately, I don’t think you can use them together. Clover as a middle?

Love them both but not together.

And I don’t normally think siblings names have to ‘go’ together but this is just too much.

If you have a red head you could go for Kerry Gold.

I actually love it! The butter wouldn’t put me off!

What about Fern?

I didn’t even think of butter, but just thought too floral! When DD did preschool ballet she was literally the only child in the class without a flower name (except for the child who had the same name as her, so I’m not claiming originality!). Violet, Poppy, Rose and Lily. My main association with Clover is What Katy Did, but it’s bit much with Flora...

What about ferne? Goes nicely with flora.

The reactions you will receive will depend on where you live and your social circles. I’m shocked by the negative comments and think Clover is a lovely name and also think its’s fine with Flora. We’re in East London where this sort of name combo is common place.

Margarine is nice too. I had a neighbour called Marge when I was a child and always assumed it was short for Margarine.
If you like dairy spread related names (very popular these days) then how about Pat?

How about Fern or Willow? Not quite such strong dairy associations!

Um....

What about Chloe?

Go for it! Why stop when you're on a roll?

We've got a Flora. Her sister is pretty much stuck with being known as Fauna.
