    Ah, well I just googled Orchid to see if they were known by any other names, and to see what 'orchid' meant. I'd be thinking it's definitely out. Orchid comes from the Greek word meaning testicle So yeah not sure that's gonna cut it either
    oh dear - not having much luck am i?

    willow, you know I love ya, but can you please stop helping now? 'Cause, well, you're not

    I was just thinking that you're probably regretting any of my input by now, I'm sorry I started "helping"

    I searched for names meaning Orchid on thinkbabynames and only got one...
    Orquidea \o-rqui-dea, or-quidea\ as a girl's name is of Spanish origin, and the meaning of Orquidea is "orchid".

    I think people will be content that it means orchid and not testicle!

    Otherwise perhaps a name that means flower?
    Anemone ... Greek mythology: the name of a nymph who was turned into a flower.
    Ayanna ... "Beautiful flower."
    Blossom ... "Flower-like." Generic flower name first used in the 19th century as an affectionate pet name for a young girl.
    Calantha ... "Beautiful flower."
    Dianthe ... "Flower of the gods."
    Fleur ... "Flower."
    Flora ... "Flower."
    Hanako ... "Flower child."
    Kalina ... "Flower."
    Peri ... Perah is an Israeli name meaning "flower".
    Philantha ... "Lover of flowers."
    Xeni ... "Protector of plants, flowers."

    Otherwise passing on Kaye would be lovely. Perhaps Kayte if you don't mind/wanted to alter it a bit?
