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.

YorkshireMom · 25/11/2022 22:05

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.
