Flower names for a girl?

We have just found out we are having a little girl :-). Our other daughter is called Violet and we would like another "flower" name for this one. Not Lily, Daisy or Poppy as there are friends / family members called that.





I quite like Marguerite. Grateful for any ideas

Flower names for a girl?
*Daisy

Reply:Rose, Heather (my name), Veronica, Marguerite, Hazel, Fern, Azalea, Sage, Logan, Holly, Ginger...





You could try picking up a book on plants and flowers at your library, the Latin or Greek names for the plants can be just as lovely as a flower name.
Reply:Iris? Rose (Rosie)? Marigold?
Reply:Heather (my daughter) or Lavender





Both sweet smelling, and both go nicely with Violet.





My "quirk" is names ending in ER














Also if you go to
