Baby sister for Daisy

So I am pregnant and expecting another girl. I need some girls names to go with my current DD Daisy. Although it wasn't a consideration when she was born, as she has gotten older we have a lot of daisy things, like photo frames, handbag, earrings etc and so I quite like the idea of another name which could have a little symbol or trinket attached to it. I generally go for quite classic, traditional names. Can't use Grace or Lily due to close family.
Here is my current list:

Willow
Nancy
Bonnie
Martha
Beatrix
Mabel
Elsie
Violet
Molly
Etta
Eloise
Olive
Cleo
Nell

Any thoughts or other suggestions very gratefully received!
:)

Regarding the symbol or trinket, I would either go for a precious or semi-precious stone name like Pearl, Ruby, Coral, Emerald or a name which means star (Stella, Astrid, Seren, Nova).

This is the best suggestion :)

Bonnie or Cleo are my favourites.

Cherry
Holly
Poppy
Dolly
Teddy

DD2 will probably get fewer 'personalised' things anyway, unless you make a conscious effort to give her as many.

I'd go for a jewel name rather than another flower.
Amber, Ruby, Jade, Sapphire, Pearl

Or a bird, Robyn or Wren

Our twins are Violet and Daisy and we get a ridiculous amount of compliments Grin

Thanks all, these are super helpful. I need to get DH to chuck some preferences my way, but so far I think my favourite 2 are:
Daisy & Violet
Daisy & Beatrix

This whole naming babies thing is so hard, especially when it is the 3rd one of the same gender (one stillborn) as it is hard to find a name which doesn't feel like a second best or reject choice from the previous 2!

First thoughts were Martha and Miranda before I read about the trinkets thing.

Robin was my next thought.

Robin
Stella
Briony
Coral
Emerald

JamSandle · 25/11/2022 04:55

Emerald
Ruby

I like Beatrix but much prefer Beatrice. Especially when paired with Daisy, as they are both soft sounding and look prettier together. Daisy and Bea sounds wonderful! So sweet.

From your list I like Willow, Nancy, Mabel, Violet, Molly, Olive and Cleo. The Daisy’s I know have sisters called Phoebe and Millie

Beatrix/Beatrice NN Bea with lots of lovely Bee themed trinkets!

Lettherebedelight · 26/11/2022 11:27

Martha or Nancy from your list.
Alice is a favourite of mine if DS had been a girl.
