[name]Garland[/name]
[name]Delphine[/name]
[name]Bryony[/name]
[name]Aster[/name]

FYI - I have noticed that [name]Senna[/name] is gaining some popularity, it’s a laxative!

[name]Fleur[/name]
[name]Ivy[/name]
[name]Lily[/name]
[name]Rose[/name]

At least these are the names I would actually consider using. I do have a sweet spot for [name]Primrose[/name] though.

nat108 · July 18, 2012, 6:49am

I’d only use:

[name]Calla[/name]
[name]Garland[/name]- boy or girl
[name]Lotus[/name]- my favorite
[name]Orchid[/name]
[name]Petal[/name]- mn only
[name]Violet[/name]- [name]Violetta[/name] as a mn only

[name]Azalea[/name]
[name]Bryony[/name]
[name]Calla[/name]
[name]Clover[/name]
[name]Delphine[/name]
[name]Flora[/name]
[name]Ianthe[/name]

[name]Bryony[/name]
[name]Calla[/name]
[name]Dahlia[/name]
[name]Delphine[/name]
[name]Zinnia[/name]

[name]Azalea[/name]- Such a beautiful name. I would use this for a future daughter.
[name]Heather[/name]
[name]Iris[/name]- I love this name, but it sounds too close to [name]Alice[/name] in my ears. Since I want to use [name]Alice[/name], I can never use this name.
[name]Lilac[/name]- It’s just pretty
[name]Tulip[/name]- My favorite flower name, though you need a certain personality to pull it off. That’s why I think it’s more suitable for the middle name spot.

[name]Delphine[/name]
[name]Iris[/name]
[name]Marguerite[/name]

Only five? I love flower names, this is so hard, haha.

If I can only pick five, they would be:

[name]Violet[/name]
[name]Lily[/name]
[name]Primrose[/name] (nn [name]Posy[/name])
[name]Ivy[/name]
[name]Azalea[/name]

BUT, I really, really wanted to vote for [name]Flora[/name] (or [name]Fleur[/name]), [name]Zinnia[/name], [name]Delphine[/name], [name]Daisy[/name] (although I only like this as a MN), [name]Posey[/name] on its own, and [name]Iris[/name]. I love [name]Daphne[/name] a lot, too, and I don’t think that was mentioned…

[name]Rose[/name]

I love flower names! I like almost all of these to some degree (the only ones I don’t like at all are [name]Daffodil[/name], [name]Hyacinth[/name], [name]Bluebell[/name], [name]Orchid[/name], [name]Petunia[/name] and [name]Tulip[/name] - these to me just aren’t names - I don’t like the way they sound!). Many others I like but would never ever actually use (such as [name]Amaryllis[/name], [name]Azalea[/name], [name]Magnolia[/name]…despite my love of nn [name]Maggie[/name]…).

Here is a list of the ones that are on my list/could potentially make it onto my list:

[name]Calla[/name] - is on my list
[name]Lily[/name] - probably won’t use due to popularity, but I keep it there anyway…[name]Calla[/name] is my new [name]Lily[/name]-related crush
[name]Flora[/name] - love…it’s on my list. I also adore [name]Nora[/name]…it’s hard to decide!
[name]Marguerite[/name] - not on my list, but I’ve been developing [name]Margaret[/name]-nickname crushes ([name]Maisie[/name], [name]Maggie[/name], [name]Greta[/name]), so here it is.
[name]Lilac[/name] - not sure about this one, but it seems wearable.

Very honourable mentions to: [name]Petal[/name], [name]Zinnia[/name], [name]Daisy[/name] and [name]Clover[/name].

Okay, MAYBE [name]Magnolia[/name] too. I’ll have to think about that one. Is it too hippie? Too eccentric? Hmm…
