Message: "Juniper" - Behind the Name

[Opinions] Juniper

I read from the Finnish Elle magazine that Finnish model Suvi Riggs (née Koponen) and her husband Tyler Riggs named their daughter Juniper. She was born already in December 2016, but this was the first time her name was revealed publicly (as far as I know). Unfortunately they didn't mentioned Juniper's MN in the article.

So, what do you think about Juniper? Which MN would you combine it with? If you want extra challenge, try to use Finnish names (I'm pretty sure Suvi's daughter has one, to reflect her mother's background).

It's nice in a New Age kind of way.

I love Juniper! Henna Juniper would be cute. I also love Lumi, but "snow juniper" sounds a bit strange...
Juniper Elina could be cute, too. Elina is such a cute Finnish name and it also works in Swedish.

Näkemiin,
Caprice

I love Juniper, I love Juni or Juno for a nickname... I also like Juniper for a boy... (also love Jupiter for a boy but not game to use it!)

Hi Remora !!!

Juniper is foreign yes but it is a nature-name so I think it could be quite elegant in Finland..

I've never thought about a NN for it. Ginny could be lovely...

If you are looking for a Finnish one I think that Juniper 'Pirjo' could be perfect.

She's looking for middles, not nicks. :)

This seems like one of those names I should love, but I just don't. I think both the name and the plant are kind of ugly. I wish I felt differently because I like quirky plant names, but I just can't.
