Love Iris!

Anya - I like this a lot
Juno - I feel like this is a bit trendy compared with Iris. I do like it though.
June - don't like at all
Lauren - urgh. Way too 90s.
Violet - nice but too floral together

Adam - lovely
Laurie - fabulous but I'd use Laurence nn Laurie

other suggestions:
Iris and Beatrice
Iris and Constance/Connie
Iris and Meredith
Iris and Amelie
Iris and Verity
Iris and Tabitha
Iris and Freya
Iris and Finlay
Iris and Jude
Iris and Toby
Iris and Reuben
Iris and Rufus
Iris and Felix

I do love Laurie though!

Love Adam.

My first thought for a girls name was Pearl.

PickledScrump · 12/07/2023 21:02

Love anya and Juno but I think Iris and Juno flows better than Iris and Anya. My first name thematic popped in my head was Iris and Mabel.

siblings of the girls called Iris I know of:
Orla
Pearl
Esther

Sebastian
Micah

I have an Ava and an Iris, next girl would probably be Elena or Emilia.

June is lovely. What about April?

continentallentil · 13/07/2023 17:12

I like Juno and Laurence nn Laurie
like June too but I think it’s odd if you aren’t born in June. Violet is a second flower which I think is too much. Lauren is fine but a bit dated, Adam is OK

Vivienne nn Vivi
Victoria nn Vita

Violet and Adam from your lists.

Or Ivy

Or Marcus

Whatames · 13/07/2023 17:24

I think Iris and Juno are fab. One is Greek and one is Roman so they sort of go without being too matchup. Same with the sounds; they are both two syllables but not repetitive. Love both names together and even more together

Theoldwoman · 14/07/2023 13:45

Iris and Ebony
Iris and Ruby
Iris and Indigo
Iris and Xanthe

Iris and Reuben
Iris and Cosmo
Iris and Quintin
Iris and Lincoln
