Flora?

Thoughts on Flora Green?
Obviously Green is the surname.

Vegan marg?

I like the name Flora :)

It's nice

No- I would go for Florence. Flora makes me think of margarinez

I like it, I have a lovely friend with this name, never associated it with margarine

Lovely x

Its a lovely name, and very under used

And fauna

Lovely name!

Yes, there is a margarine called “flora” but lots of names are also brand names. Doesn’t mean it’s not a perfectly nice name still ☺️

'Flora Green' sounds like a natural cleaning product 😬

Sorry, it was the first thing that came to my mind. I don't mind Flora, but prefer Fleur. What is the middle name? What do you like about Flora? The floral connection, nature, 2 syllables?

It's alright. Prefer Florence

Flora, Reminds me of butter, and what you call cows and dogs

Flora is lovely but I don't like it with your surname sadly! Someone said Florence above - I like that better with Green

I've got a Flora G. So obviously, I think it's lovely!
She is at secondary school and has so far not been teased about it.
(Her big sister is sometimes referred to as Fauna)

have you considered teresa?

flora is greenery so a bit of a daft pairing IMO , and that’s ignoring all Benecol-like associations

Yeah, margarine sorry @Jollytots34

Fine with the surname imo, yes there is a slight nature vibe but it’s no big deal. Flora has pretty, retro charm and with the steady rise of Nora and Cora, I think Flora might increase enough too that people won’t necessarily think of the spread first anymore.

I don't like it sorry, margarine and yeast infections are what Flora brings to mind. Soz.

I think it sounds like a cleaning product too with your surname. I agree that Florence would be better. Or Nora / fleur/ Fflur / Ffion

I want to say 'Flora and Fauna' too
I also get an image of the margarine tub in my mind.

Maybe it is more often used as a name in Scotland ?

I love it . Do you like Florence ? Flora then as shortened version

Better than I can't believe it's not butter Green.

Sorry, the margarine connotations are too strong for me as well personally.

I think that Green is a challenging surname - like Park, Field, Lane, etc. it invites people to see the full name (first plus last, as most people will not know the middle) as a possible place name. However, I don't find Flora especially bad, and personally I like the name and might use it - but I am Scottish and it's been an established and unremarkable name for eons; I wonder if people who associate it so strongly with the company are from places where there is less of a history of "Flora" as just simply a girl's/woman's name? By the way, in case it makes a difference, "Flora" as a margarine company has not footprint outwith the UK except for a vague association with feminism/women's rights.

Vegan butter

Flora honestly makes me think of bacteria and infections. I did wonder what would come up on Google if you type in the name/two words and the top 3 hits are a free productivity app, a herbal liquor and a paint colour.

Florence Green is very similar and a much nicer name in my opinion.

Flora Green
Florence Green - looks better too?

Also, if you say Flora Green out loud without a conscious pause between forename and surname, it sounds like Floragreen!

This.
