Wild sunflowers have a very special personal meaning to me and, if possible, I would love to find a name that could connect to them in some way.
(For example, I once read that and alternate meaning of [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] is âflower of the fieldâ, which I loved, but I recently looked into it more and found the translation is closer to âmarsh flower.â Not quite the vibe Iâm looking for.)
Can you think of or find any names that could connect to sunflowers/wildflowers/flowers of the field, etc? Iâd love any and all ideas you have!
You could also combine something meaning light/bright/etc. with something floral. [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_f]Flora[/name_f] or [name_f]Nell[/name_f] [name_f]Flora[/name_f] came to mind!
Just looked up sunflower in the database. [name_f]Himari[/name_f], [name_f]Hinata[/name_f] and [name_f]Himawari[/name_f] are all Japanese for sunflower.
Wildflower is one of my favourite whimsical middle names. I think [name_u]Cameron[/name_u] [name_u]Diaz[/name_u] using it for her baby girl has made it feel more usable too!
I am here for this. I also hold sunflowers close to my heart, I have considered Sunflower itself as a wild middle name.
Mirasol is another one I liked, Spanish for Sunflower
Some lovely suggestions here. I also love Sunflower as is, too. For a middle and even for a first with nickname [name_u]Sunny[/name_u].
Sunflowers are part of the daisy family, so [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] is another name to consider. Also [name_f]Madelief[/name_f] and [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f].
Sunniva- means sun
[name_f]Cressida[/name_f] -means golden and always reminds me of sunflowers
[name_f]Anthea[/name_f] - means flowery
[name_f]Zahara[/name_f] - means flower or to shine which i think is fitting for a sunflower
@Raven-1013 I worry about it too, but I donât know everyoneâs background when I post. I have decided to offer up suggestions when asked and let people decide for themselves.
Yes I saw Girasol, I saw on google and wikipedia Mirasol but itâs not as commonly used as Girasol but Iâm not Spanish so it could be wrong.
mirasol - annual sunflower grown for silage and for its seeds which are a source of oil; common throughout United States and much of [name_u]North[/name_u] [name_u]America[/name_u]
I think Mirasol is so pretty nn include, [name_f]Mimi[/name_f] , Me, [name_u]Sully[/name_u] (which I love on a girl)
Thatâs interesting. [name_f]My[/name_f] husband is from Mexico, and the flowers are called Girasol down there. Maybe thereâs a Spanish speaking country where they are called Mirasol?
I searched Mirasol on Google and found thereâs a type of chile pepper from Mexico called Mirasol that we usually use in the dried form. I had no idea because the dried chiles have a different name altogether!
Iâm loving them!
