Flower names for girls

Hello! I’m new here. Currently expecting our 3rd & final baby. We have two beautiful girls already - Poppy and Bluebell, and have recently found out this baby is a girl too! So we are looking for another flower name to go with Poppy and Bluebell. I’ve always loved Rose, however it I struggle because of the association with Rose West the serial killer (silly I know because the name and the flower are beautiful but I always think of her) Lily is also gorgeous but I already know lots of Lily’s. Any suggestions?
Other option we thought of is going for a jewel name as I’m named after a jewel myself, but ideally would like a flower to go with the other two 😊💜 - Please note, my other 2 girls are already named so I really don’t need to know if you don’t like their names 😹 just looking for ideas on what to call DD3, thanks in advance 🌸🩷 x

Rose is the nicest and goes really well with your other daughters' names.
And you like it! ( no-one will think of Rose W!!!)

Iris or Daisy for me

PerspiringElizabeth · 21/07/2023 10:17

Meadow? 😍 my DD’s middle name

Zinnia is pretty rad too

PerspiringElizabeth · 21/07/2023 10:19

OH no hang on, it’s got to be Marigold surely. Little Goldie!

HolidayHappy123 · 21/07/2023 10:56

Fleur

JaninaDuszejko · 21/07/2023 11:01

Iris is my favourite but if you love Rose use that. Unless your surname is West nobody will think of Rosemary West.

MuckyPlucky · 21/07/2023 11:04

Marigold
Clematis (Clem for short)
Ivy
Gerbera
Calla
Heather
Blossom
Lilac

I wouldn’t personally go for Daisy, Iris or Violet as there are too many near me.

GG1986 · 21/07/2023 11:19

I love Daisy. I had a boy this time, but Daisy was our girl name if it had been a girl.

RosesAndHellebores · 21/07/2023 11:39

Hebe
Daphne
Ivy

Howtohideasausage · 21/07/2023 11:39

Marigold!

I have an Iris and a Viola.

Spidey66 · 21/07/2023 11:41

I like Daisy, Ivy and Willow.

watermeloncougar · 21/07/2023 12:13

Juniper if you fancy a tree name, as a bit of a change?

Love Cassia or Camellia.

Violet has become way too popular and looks too close to violent.

How about something like Amber so you're continuing the nature theme without being too matchy?

watermeloncougar · 21/07/2023 12:14

Jessamine/Jessamy are rather pretty variants of Jasmine

RosaSkye · 21/07/2023 12:46

Some lovely suggestions here! I think Primrose is perfect with your other two

EvelynBeatrice · 21/07/2023 12:52

Astrid?

CatchHimDerry · 21/07/2023 13:05

Always loved Rose it’s a lovely name

also Clover, Violet or Viola, Ivy, Heather and Holly

CuriousLadyBird · 21/07/2023 13:52

My little girl is called Dahlia (Dah-lia) so I'm biased but I also love Lilly, Primrose and Poppy.

Tlolljs · 21/07/2023 14:01

Iris
Peony
Honeysuckle ( my fav)
Primrose
Daisy
Violet

pambeeslyhalpert2 · 21/07/2023 14:06

I like that you're a brave namer with Bluebell (which I love) so I think something like

Meadow
Blossom
Primrose? Primmy for short? I'm not a fan of rose of its own

pambeeslyhalpert2 · 21/07/2023 14:07

Oh I love posy as well
