Tap Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Helping a friend (not me LOL). She needs a middle name to go with Lauren. Last name 2 syllables begins and ends with an /s/ sound (Sanders would be similar if you want a phonetic placeholder). She is looking for a nature name. Violet is a top contender right now. Definitely not Lilly. She has looked through lots of common "girls names from nature" lists and isn't seeing anything that really feels right. I thought maybe I would ask here and see if anyone has a idea that is not a common USA name or maybe one that has an unusual connection to nature that may not be on the lists.. Any ideas?

Lori D. Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Rose or Rosetta? Viola? Aspen? Coral? Autumn or Dawn (season/time in nature)? Opal or Jade (the natural semi-precious stones)? Ariel (means "air")? Willow? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Innisfree Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Fern Rose/Rosalind Briar Bramble Persephone Flora Demeter Althaea Since her first and last names will have two syllables each, I'd tend to choose either one or three+ syllables for the middle name. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-rap Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 For some reason, 3-syllable or more names come to mind: Olivia Elizabeth Rosella Louisa Margaret and yes, Violet sounds good too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catz Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I personally like 1 syllable or 3 syllable names with Lauren. 2 syllables don't flow as well to me. Lauren Rose is really beautiful! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rose was the first name that popped into my head but with a last name that sounds like Sanders I'd go with Rosalie so there wouldn't be a z/s sound immediately followed by another S. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
