I am thinking of changing my name and i dont like my grandma’s name, [name_f]Frances[/name_f], which isnmy middle name. However, I would like to honor my grandma either by keeping her name or another namr that would honor her. I hate the names [name_f]Francine[/name_f], [name_f]Francesca[/name_f], and [name_u]Frankie[/name_u]. [name_f]My[/name_f] grandma was born in [name_u]December[/name_u] and she had a green thumb. I even remember helping her water all of the plants on her porch. She also had a garden where she grew vegetables such as tomatoes. Any name suggestions would be helpful.
[name_u]Florence[/name_u] came to mind, it has a lot of similar sounds! [name_u]Or[/name_u] maybe another name ending in an -ees sound, like [name_f]Iris[/name_f] (which also has a botanical connection), [name_f]Anais[/name_f], [name_f]Maris[/name_f]? If you have precious memories of your grandmother and gardening you could also just go for a botanical name, there are many lists of flower & plant names out there, but for some quick inspiration: [name_u]Sage[/name_u], [name_u]Rose[/name_u], [name_f]Lily[/name_f], [name_f]Flora[/name_f], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], [name_f]Marigold[/name_f], [name_f]Petal[/name_f], [name_f]Blossom[/name_f], and [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] come to mind. You could also go for a name that shares the same meaning as [name_f]Frances[/name_f], “free man”, like [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] / [name_f]Carolina[/name_f] / [name_f]Karolina[/name_f] or [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] / [name_u]Carol[/name_u] / [name_f]Carla[/name_f] / [name_f]Lottie[/name_f] / [name_u]Charlie[/name_u]!
