    No association other than the obvious Calla Lily. Very pretty!

    Oof! I definitely don't like Callie and would hope people wouldn't use that as Calla doesn't need a nn.

    As for other flower names I don't like any others..for some reason Calla just appeals to me and I love it.  When I was at work when I just was newly pregnant a customer came in with her new baby girl and it was the first time I heard the name and I loved it..I do know a little girl named Callia, but I prefer Calla!

    I like it. It's pretty and feminine but not over the top. I think if you hate Callie though then you should keep that in mind...she may want to be called Callie one day.

    Elisabeth is beautiful. 

    Calla reminds me of my DH and his little sister's made-up language.  It is part of what my husband tells the dog when the cats are starting to misbehave.

    I did think of Calla Lily but I don't think it is as obvious a flower name as Rose or Violet. 

    Calla Elisabeth is a great name. However, I don't know if I would choose it if you aren't okay with the nickname Callie - that might be an uphill battle.

    Love it! Wouldn't have thought calla Lilly right off the bat, which I love that its more subtle flower reference. And it just sounds lovely.

    Personally I am not a fan of Calla. To me, it doesn't sound like a "real" name.

    I think of Calla lilies, so it's a nice association. Camellias are also lovely flowers and I have met a Camellia here and there...NN Cami.
