Can anyone manage boys names that have 'nature' connotations?

So far I have come up with
Rowan (which I quite like)
Ash (which I don't really like)

Anyone got any other offerings?

Are you looking for something obviously to do with nature, or maybe a bit more obscure?

Problem is some of the boy "nature" names start sounding like they could be used on American soap operas!
