I'm struggling to find a middle name for a girl & I was thinking along the lines of a flower inspired name. Not something totally off the wall, but a bit unusual & definitely not Lily/Daisy/Poppy/Rose or anything of that ilk.

All suggestions welcome.

Hana (Hanna\Hannah) - is Japanese for "flower"

Great some interesting suggestions. I love Bluebell but yes, it's too Geri Halliwell!

Another vote for Cameila.

Also like Primrose and Marigold (particularly Marigold)

Daisy (but as a nm)

Know an Emily-Lavender IRL. Quite nice.

I once heard of a girl called: Snowflower.

I'd forgotten about it. Am not even sure if there is such thing as a snow flower? Memorable I guess!

MummyLovesSadie · 14/06/2010 18:03

Isn't Fleurette also the brand name of a bag of lettuce??

Incidentally I quite like the name Lettuce & it is actually a proper name!
