Looking for a name for a boy to go with their elder sisters name (Think Ivy, Iris, Hazel etc), but not too out there as we are fairly conventional in our taste and don't want to saddle baby with something they will hate!

Amy ideas please?!

Heath
Leif

Leif is pronounced 'LAYf' and means 'descendent/heir' so wouldn't fit the nature theme.

Tarragon and Quince 😂

I love Robin.
You could do Salix, Latin name for willow species. Never heard it used as a name but I like it.

Flint
Cairn
Finch

I love pp’s suggestion of Tarn.
