Do you like these flower names for girls?
It's surprising how many flower-inspired names there are, more than I thought. What is your verdict on these names? I will also comment!
-Alyssa: From the alyssum flower. Personally I like it, it's original and a bit fairy.
-Blossom: It's okay, but too hippie for me.
-Bryony: A flowering vine-like plant. Not bad, but maybe a bit difficult to pronounce? Sorry.
-Calanthe: A type of orchid. For a character of a Fantasy novel or for a nymph is good, but other than that it would be a bit odd.
-Calla: The calla lily is a funnel-shaped flower. I don't like it, sounds like "Shut up" in Spanish.
-Camellia: I like it! Similar with Camila, right? But Camellia is cute.
-Cassia: Known as the golden shower tree. Mmm, not bad, but it's not my style. Cassie could be a cute nickname.
-Clover: A bit hippie, but this one is better than Blossom. Good name.
-Cynthia: It's the name of a shrub with yellow dandelion-like flowers. I hear this name a lot but it's not my style. However, I don't dislike it.
-Daisy: A good one. Classic, romantic and girly, but maybe too cute for my taste.
-Flora: Oh, I like it! Once I met a teacher named Flora who was the most sweet-hearted person, so yeah, I like it.
-Hazel: Also a good name. Lovely.
-Holly: A evergreen shrub associated with Christmas. Hmm, it's not my style and sounds more like a nickname than a full name, so I don't like it. Sorry.
-Hyacinth: A bit too old-fashioned for me, so no.
-Ivy: A types of climbing plant that have yellow flowers and dark purple berries. Cute! But it's too short and too cute.
-Jasmine: Beautiful, but I don't like that the movie Aladdin has taken over the name.
-Iris: This name is becoming more popular and I hear more lately. Cute but not too cute.
-Lily: Ah, the most popular one. It's okay, but it's too common, too short (sounds more as a nickname) and too cute for my taste. Sorry!
-Magnolia: Oh, interesting. I like it, sounds mature and misterious.
-Marguerite: A bit old-fashioned, but it's better than the typical Margaret.
-Myrtle: No, sorry, too old-fashioned for me.
-Petunia: The name is good, but sadly I don't know why it's sounds like a petulant child.
-Primrose: Similar with Petunia, but more princess and cute.
-Rose: I don't like Rose itself, but I like long Rose- names, like Rosemary, Rosalind or Rosalía.
-Violet: Classic and pretty. Not bad.
-Willow: Sounds cool but it's not my style, However, I think it's a good name.
Sorry if it's too long! Get these names of the Pampers page. There are more, but I didn't want them to be too long. If you can think of more flower names, leave it in the comments!

I have a serious soft spot for flower names, even if I do not like all of them they all intrigue me in their own way. And yes you would be surprised there are way more flower names than you could ever imagine. Especially when you start digging in other regions besides your own, and particularly when you look into non traditionally name-y flower names it's even more.
Of yours listed I love: Violet, Ivy, Hyacinth, Primrose, Marguerite
I like: Rose, Calla, Petunia, Clover, Lily, Iris, Hazel, Daisy, Calanthe, Bryony
