Girl's Name Suggestions Please
We are really struggling to come up with a girl's name. I was hoping for some suggestions.
My criteria are:
Not too girly
Not common
Maybe a bit hippy-ish, but not too out there. Like sky or river.
Maybe something botanical.
Any ideas??

Thanks for the suggestions.
Poppy is on our shortlist. Daisy is already taken as my DD's middle name.
We are really struggling this time. Nothing is really jumping out at us.
Oh well...

For some reason atm I'm loving MAXIENE, shortened to Max. Cute, not too common, and can be a bit more girly or strong and a bit more androginous (sp?)

Our little girl is Tess Alice
I liked girls names that were good for the baby, school girl, teenager, adult and old lady
It was either Tess Alice or Alice Tess
Also had Ruby and Grace
and at the last minute added Namilla
Not terribly botanical.
good luck..tough decision

My name's Felicity. I only met a few Felicitys in my entire lifetime. It means happiness. I LOVE my name, thought I would suggest my name I know a few girls with not too common names such as Meadow, Esme, Zera, Kassi, Jamie Lee, Therese, Dannyelle, Larissa. That is all I would think at the moment. Hope this helps ?
