We are trying for number 2, we already have a daughter Poppy. We are looking for a boys name that is on the same theme.

We were trying to think of any flower, plant or herb but are stuck. Any ideas would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks

Argh, you're all right of course and I take back what I said about Rowan not being a boy's name. What was I thinking

I know someone with a Lily and Rose, they called their dc3, a boy, William. I have always assumed it was continuing the theme with (sweet) william.

Joaquin changed his name to leaf as a child, as he wanted to be like his siblings (liberty, rainbow, summer, river). He changed it back as an adult.

(lol at some posts - sorry)

Rowan is either sex (which is not my fave thing as I have such a name).

I know a small Rowan girl and a grown-up Rowan boy.

Heath is quite nice, I know a 9yo Heath.

Willow is a girl I reckon.

moondog has some good suggestions but surely asfoetid is a girl's name?
