need help with middle name togo with iris surname cook.

i like iris rose but agree with people that maybe a bit too flowery!?!

another that sounds quite nice is iris elizabeth..but im not a massive fan of the name elizabeth but funnily like the sound of it as a middle but think maybe bit to grand to strong names together!?

any other suggestions welcome??

Can't really think of a name but yes, I think Iris Rose definitely too flowery. Iris Elizabeth is better IMO (both names beautiful) but maybe too strong, yes.

Iris Louise?

louise is nice but have a bit of a bad association with it even thou nice as my mum always used to say it went with everything so always ended up as a middle name..even my younger sis's lol

My grandmother was Iris Lilian, which I think goes well and isn't QUITE as flowery.

I'm thinking you want a little bit of length and frill in there.

'My' Iris is an Iris Anna!

I second Iris Amelia. Iris Blosson doesn't seem to flow very well and yes too flowery.

I really like Iris Amelia - thought of it before I looked at your replies and it's there already, beautiful name x
