because I'm not a typical female...but girl names are pretty and I've spent my whole life thinking about what my name would be if I could change it.
BABY NAMES. Yes, today I pondered over what my future daughter's name will be, since the only names I like are boys' and definitely not interchangeable. So I decided that with my love for flora and fauna and my obsession with plants and my history of flower-interest, if I ever have a daughter, I will name her after one.
The front runner is ISIS. I adore it! She could be called Izzy!?
I thought of these immediately...
Anne (as a middle name, and to follow in the tradition of my mother, nana, and aunts - from Queen Anne's Lace)
Daisy
Rose (also for a middle name)
Poppy (probably my second favorite)
Sunny (from Sunflower)
Violet
Maggie (from Magnolia)
Then I decided to look here for more inspiration...because I'm ridiculous....
Calla (from Calla Lily)
Lily
Lila (from Lilac)
Willow
Dahlia
Goldie (if she were blonde, obviously, from Gladiola or Golden-anything)
Chrysanthemum
Azara
Azalea
Callisia
Cleo (from Cleome)
Coco (from Cocos)
Cori (from Coriaria)
Disa
Ella (from Elaeis)
Fabi (from Fabiana)
Heidi (from Hydrangea)
Kol (from Koeleria/Kohleria)
Mazzy (from Mazus)
Mila (from Milla)
Molina (from Molinia)
Marina (from Morina)
Nico (but it's from Nicotiana, which is Nicotine, and I never want to admit that!)
Olive
Pandora (from Pandorea)
Sophora
Thalia
Tilly (from Tilia)
Sia (from Woodsia)

ReplyDeletedave escobar has a friend with that name that he used to mention frequently and i loved it!
it's funny that kol is on there because i've never known anyone with that name besides my old roommate and best friend, but it was short for nicole.
