Please inspire me- "organic" girl's names

in Baby Names
I was completely unprepared to name a girl. I know I tend to lean toward more organic sounding names, which sounds so stupid but anyway...
I kind of like flower names, or bird names or... tree names? Like Willow.
Hit me, ladies.

Dittos!!
My two cents:
Poppy looks adorable on paper but I could't handle it out loud. I would always hear "Papi" and think of skanky cheesy rap videos.
I think you should name her Rosie.
Rose or Jade would be a pretty mn.
Willow Rose
Autumn Rose, Summer Rose
April Rose
Others: Moon (mn if u wanna go 'out there'), Meadow, Brooke, Chloe (means "verdant" and "blooming"), Lily Jade or Lily Rose.
I love the name Wren. It has some family significance to me, but I love the sound of it too.
I also like Violet a lot.
"Organic" names are right up my alley, SB.
There are some great suggestions above, I especially love Violet, Rose/Rosalie, Willow, Laurel, and Wren. What about a gemstone name>?
Beryl
Coral
Opal
Ruby
I don't know if that would seem too cheesy considering your job, but there are some really pretty names!
I love Willow
Rayne
Autumn
Rose
Ruby
Gemma
Stella
I love the name Willow.
Suggestions - Briony, Calla, Dawn, Autumn, Aurora, Hazel, Ivy, Jade, Magnolia, Laurel, Coral, Winter, Clover, Terra, Luna, Estelle, Juniper, Delphine

I think this might be the very first time I have ever seen my name (Beryl) suggested on this board! hahaha
Beryl will be the mn for a future daughter (if we ever have a girl). I am the 4th Beryl in my family (mother, grandmother, great-aunt). It is pronounced like Pearl with a B so there is generally issues with that..and spelling. Most people say it like Cheryl (probably rightfully so). Nonetheless, I do get the occasional complement when someone see it (I have always gone by Beth, nn of my mn).
I like Violet, Olive, Hazel,and Brooke
I love Wren. I would use it myself but a close friend used it for her daughter.
Violet is on our list and if DH got to decide we would use Iris. I just think of eyeballs too much so I can't like it.
Calla. Clementine. Briar. Lilac. Eden. June. Eve. Ivy. Lake/Laken. Laurel. Willow. Violet. Ruby. Pearl. Winter. Olive. Meadow. Plum. Sky. Gray. Iris. August. Hunter (I have a cousin named Hunter-Nicole). Glory (I know two sisters named Grace and Glory, SO cute). Holly. Posy. Sea. Honey. Blanche. Scarlet. Xanthe.
I think Lilac, June, Willow, Ruby, Xanthe and August sound best with Simon.
just to throw another one in...
a guy i work with has a daughter named zinnia. not my style personally, but apparently it's his wife's favorite flower.
I tend to favor "organic" girl names as well
Willow is what we're naming our baby, but the others on my list were:
Hazel, Juniper, Wren, Summer, Ruby, Vera, Violet, Piper, and Sierra.
Good Luck!
Thanks for all the great suggestions, ladies!
From your lists we chose:
Ruby
Violet
Hazel
Aspen
Wren
Iris
Now we just have to see if any of these are *perfect*!
Stupid Bump ate my original response. Anyway, I love the BTN website because it has a theme page and everything is broken down into easy to access name lists by theme, and since yours is nature, there are a lot of them that apply....

Great lists provided here!
The only one I have to add is Ember.

ivy and rosie are my fave "organic" girls' names. My first DD was almost Ivy..until a week before my due date, DH admitted he had really grown to dislike it. Boo Hoo.
I also like Violet, but it feels a bit too trendy to me?
LOVE the names Willow & Poppy! (I think we have always liked one anothers name picks - I remember both of us LOVING Ari.)
I have two beautiful nieces named just this, and they suit their names perfectly. Willow has long, dark curly hair and Poppy has red curly hair. Adorable!! Congrats on having a daughter!!
