[name]Hi[/name]!
I think [name]Hazel[/name] would be perfect for you, but other “accessible” yet still vintage-sounding nature names include [name]Magnolia[/name], [name]Marigold[/name], [name]Clementine[/name], [name]Jessamine[/name], and [name]Poppy[/name].
More modern names, like [name]Rowan[/name], are nice, too!
Take care,

i also like [name]Iris[/name].

I love your name, [name]Ivy[/name], too!
Ooh! So many names I hadn’t thought of yet, now I have a lot to ponder. Thank you all!
[name]How[/name] do you pronounce [name]Briony[/name]? I read a book with a character by this name and it drove me crazy not being able to figure it out.
[name]How[/name] could I forget [name]Flora[/name]?
I love so many of the suggestions, but the name which sprung to mind as I read your post was [name]Wren[/name]. It’s natural and unusual, but I think its simplicity, and the fact that it is not unheard of as a name, stop it being hippie-ish.
I adore [name]Ivy[/name], by the way
Good luck!
The original spelling is [name]Bryony[/name], and it’s pronounced BRY-oh-nee. Kind of like [name]Brian[/name] with an E at the end. Pretty name!

Thank you! ( I was thinking it would be more like [name]Bree[/name]-OH-nee. The proper way is much nicer).
I have recently been drawn to [name]Wren[/name], but feel like I would prefer it as a nickname - but what could the full name be?
[name]Lorena[/name], [name]Karenna[/name], [name]Corinna[/name]/[name]Corrine[/name], [name]Renee[/name]
There was a woman on another message board that I’m on that had a daughter named [name]Katherine[/name] with the nickname [name]Wren[/name]. Another name that has the sound sound that could work would be [name]Maren[/name]. I can’t think of any other names that have the “ren” sound in them at the moment but I’m sure there are others that would work!
[name]Hi[/name]!
[name]Bryony[/name] or [name]Briony[/name] are both lovely! Did you pick up [name]Briony[/name] from Atonement? I love it! I think [name]Wren[/name] is sweet, but I’d use it as a nickname, too…
I think you can nickname someone anything. For instance, my name is [name]Lauren[/name] but my parents call me [name]Birdie[/name]. If you want to call your daughter [name]Wren[/name], then by all means, go ahead! I, for some reason, could see [name]Wren[/name] coming from [name]Gwendolen[/name], too. I think [name]Bryony[/name] [name]Gwendolen[/name] (or [name]Bryony[/name] [name]Gwendolyn[/name]) would be a pretty name!
Take care!

I know a [name]Lauren[/name] who goes by [name]Wren[/name], but that might be too much of a stretch for you.
One of my favorite nature names is [name]River[/name] - yes, on a girl. The only [name]River[/name] I know is a girl, so I don’t think of it as a strictly masculine name. To me, it seems like a fresher update on the pretty but dated [name]Brooke[/name].
Yeah, I did read it in Atonement. I don’t particularly like [name]Briony[/name]/[name]Bryony[/name], I was just curious about its pronunciation.
I guess you are right about how nicknames don’t have to relate to the official name - It is adorable that they call you “[name]Birdie[/name]”
