  • Amanda:

    Lily because its not too old fashioned
    Briar because its cute and new
    I don’t particularly like Adsila, Agave, Columbine, Byrony, Flora, or Fleur.
    Poppy because Ianthe would probably be mispronounced.
    Dahlia.
    Daisy.
    Fern and Clover both sound like animal names to me.
    Tansy.
    Pansy would be a child made fun of.
    Chloris, its unusual.
    Violet, I love that name.
    Holly.
    Lilac and Lavendar both seem like you may have been high when naming your child
    Ivy
    Azalea
    Acacia
    Thalia and Leilani are both beautiful
    Calantha
    Camelia
    Buttercup and Bluebelle are not names.

    Columbine or Byrony (BYE-ron-ee) – neither. google Columbine.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbine_High_School_massacre
    would you want your child’s name associated with that? and Byrony sounds sort of masculine.
