[Opinions] Re: Orchid
Not only does Orchid sound ungainly but the meaning is also a turn off. It comes from Ancient Greek orkhis, meaning “testicle.”Some of the specific varieties or genera of Orchid could work as a name.
Vanda
Lycaste
Ludisia The Chinese name Xiulan is lovely and has orchid in the meaning. The Japanese name Ran, which also means orchid, is cute.
