We are looking for a spunky, off beat middle name to go with [name_u]Juniper[/name_u]. We would like it to be a nature themed (ideally floral) and haven’t found one we are set with. We like the double barrel nature name, so no need to point that out if it is not your style =)
Our back up will be [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]… [name_f]Rose[/name_f] after me and my grandmother. Although I don’t love that [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is often so common and used as a filler in the middle spot.
So please give me your best suggestions on something that flows nicely. Our other children use their middle names a lot, so making sure it flows nicely is a must for us.
Thank you!!!

Thank you!!
You really think [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] flows? [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] is my all time favorite name, but hubby doesn’t like any nick name options so it will never be a first name. I thought it might be too much of a mouthful with [name_u]Juniper[/name_u].

Good luck! I hope you like one of these 
First name I thought is [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f].
I love these! I also am inspired that you too think [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] would work. I’m worried with a three syllable last name though it might just be too much name.
Thank you for the suggestions. Please offer any more you all think would flow and be nature… Doesn’t have to stick with floral!
If you don’t mind longer names, I think [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] works!
Go with [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] if you love it. Does [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] have to have a nickname? I hate that you don’t get to use your favorite name. Been there done that. [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] is not too long to use the full form. Nickname suggestions:
[name_f]Lola[/name_f]
[name_f]Nola[/name_f]
[name_f]Maggie[/name_f]
[name_f]Lia[/name_f]
[name_f]Mia[/name_f]
One last [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] suggestion: [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f].
I’ve pulled for [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] and just being firm on no nick names. Hubby is certain it would be shortened and he just doesn’t like any options. I do love [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] and [name_u]June[/name_u], [name_f]Juni[/name_f] etc. So it still feels like a good choice. I just don’t love the flow of [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]. =(
Trying to love other flowers for middles to replace [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. But not sure [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f], [name_f]Peony[/name_f] etc flow as much as I’d like. Maybe I’m just being crazy?
Hubby is liking (not loving)
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_m]Lemon[/name_m]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Rain[/name_u]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
I like. Not sure if I’m ready to throw in the towel on a flower or just go with [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. Our older daughter is [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], so in my head I love the idea of planting “their flowers” and not just a bush!
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Wren[/name_u]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Rain[/name_u]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]
Not floral, but still nature-y.
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] sounds okay to me – I do love that name, but it could be a mouthful depending on your last name.
I think [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is very nice! Here are some mns that come to mind:
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Azalea[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Aster[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Posey[/name_f]
I think that [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] and [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] are a sweet sister sibset!
Ok, I think [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] is darling.

[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Yarrow[/name_u]
I’m mostly echoing some suggestions from above, but these would be my picks:
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Lily[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_u]Skye[/name_u]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Willow[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Ivy[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Daisy[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] – Similar to [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f] – I know the JJ thing might seem like too much J but I actually think it sounds really cute out loud and I don’t think anyone else suggested it.
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f] and [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Lily[/name_f] are my favorite options. [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] could definitely work, especially if it’s your favorite name. And even though [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is generally overused, I think [name_u]Juniper[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is really lovely! I don’t think you can go wrong :).
