HelpRe: Iris (edited)
in reply to a message by Milly
Iris is lovely, I agree.
Iris Lily and Iris Rose are too floral, though. Plus Iris Rose is too "r" heavy. Iris Winter and Iris Autumn are too noun-y for my taste. Plus putting a name of a flower together with a time of year has too much of a gardening influence. The overall effect overshadows the name. But you have some other great combinations, Iris Katherine, Iris Elizabeth and Iris Penelope being my favorites.
My favorite combination personally is either Iris Persephone (for the quirky Greek effect) or Iris Matilda (for the sweet, nostalgic effect.)
Others you might like:
Iris Callista / Callisto
Iris Miranda
Iris Isidora (Iris is adorable, isn't she?)(initials I.I. would be neat)
Iris Caroline
Iris Valerie
Iris Miriam
Iris Catriona / Cathleen
Iris Vivien
Iris Madeleine
Iris Calliope
Iris Delphine
Iris Minerva
Iris Demetria
Iris Evangeline
Iris Clementine
Iris Cordelia
Iris Dulcinea
Iris Mireia / Mireille
