Or as a first name:

I love Iris...in and of itself, the meaning, the flower, the mythological association...this painting: http://www.josephinewall.co.uk/goddesses/iris.jpg. ;)

i do like Iset though.

Iris is beautiful, simple, sweet and pure. It's just a really awesome name...it sounds so, like, "clean" if that makes any sense.

I used to dislike it because my dad is an optometrist and I hear a lot about eyes, but I adore the flower so it's grown on me as a name. I think it's classy and sounds very strong :-) My favorite combos are Iris Julia, Iris Kathleen, and Iris Madeleine.
It's pretty nice. I have never seen it on a little girl, but it would be interesting to see.
One of my favorites
My favorite combo is Iris Philomena, which just so happens to be one of my favorite combos alltogether. But it's mine! No taking lol!

I just cant get past the fact that it is a part of the eye.
Really? That's what I like most about it.
My 7 year old is Iris Matilda - so I like that!!
I think it is a lovely name - and despite the trend for flower na,es (here in England Rose, Poppy, Daisy, Jasmine are very popular) - Iris has remained uncommon - so hopefully will not become faddy or dated (my big fear with names!)
My Iris was called Iris partly as i am a fan of Iris Murdoch and partly after my grandmother who is Jean Iris.
