Flower/plant middle name for ‘Bronwyn’

Can you lovely bunch help me find a flower or plant name as a middle name for ‘Bronwyn’ please?

We liked ‘Lily’ as a name but I’m not sure it sits well next to Bronwyn? Ivy would be perfect but that’s my first’s middle name 🤦‍♀️

Just a note that the Welsh name is Bronwen.

-wyn is a masculine name ending, as in Arwyn, Carwyn, Cledwyn, Dilwyn, Elwyn, Tegwyn etc.

-wen is the feminine ending

I was just coming to say this

Iris?

Bronwen Daisy is super cute. Bronwen is a great name - it's not frilly so you can balance it with a softer middle name.

lioneggs · 23/02/2024 16:58

I think Iris flows nicely!

Poblano · 23/02/2024 16:58

And my suggestion is Bronwen Fflur. Fflur means flower in Welsh.

PurplePansy05 · 23/02/2024 16:58

It should be Bronwen.

Bronwen Iris is lovely.

OhItsOnlyCynthia · 23/02/2024 16:59

Bronwen Ffion keeps the Welsh and flower themes.

rubyslippers · 23/02/2024 17:00

Rose

takemeawayagain · 23/02/2024 17:01

I think Bronwyn Violet could flow nicely with the right surname.

My husband said we need to spell it Bronwen because of this but I just love the ‘wyn’ 😂 thank you though, will probably need to be Bronwen then!

Maybe something that's in bloom around the time she's due, if possible?

Also Bronwen and definitely not Bronwyn.

Mwnci123 · 23/02/2024 17:09

Bronwen is lovely.

TrumpetOfTheMatriarchy · 23/02/2024 17:11

Blossom!

This.

Fflur is a bit of a filler middle name, as are Mai (May) and Haf (Summer). Bronwen Lili would work.
Bronwen Gwyddfid
Bronwen Mair
Bronwen Elin

** Elwyn is not of Welsh origin but is used in Wales.

Elphame · 23/02/2024 17:14

Bronwen Blodeuwedd?

OK maybe not really but it really is the ultimate flower name!

SurvivalKits · 23/02/2024 17:18

Re the spelling problem: as a different example Robin is usually for a boy and Robyn is usually for a girl but I much prefer the Robin spelling and know some girls called Robin. Is it not possible at all to use Bronwyn? What's going to happen?

momtoboys · 23/02/2024 17:19

I think that with Bronwen (beautiful, BTW) you need a one syllable middle name -

Bronwen Rose
Bronwen Fern
