Spring names
Since spring is in the air (in the northern hemisphere at least) I thought I'd share this question: What are some names you associate with springtime? Which names make you think of blossoming flowers, reborn nature and calm breezes? :-)
(It doesn't have to be a floral name, just any name you think of.)

Not all flower/plant names make me think of spring, actually. Violet I find more wintry, same with Olive and Laurel.

Well, obviously, most of the flower names, and Spring itself, though I have to say I don't like Spring as a name at all.
April and Robin too.

Funny, I almost posted this same thing last week! :) Definitely finally feeling spring in these parts the last few days! Weee!
I suppose there are the obvious sorts:
Spring
April
May
Tulip
Daffodil
Hyacinth
Calla
Jonquil (I like this on a boy!)
Lilac
Iris
Blossom
What else blooms in spring...Crocus? Ha! No, not really.
Fawn?
Sky?
It has nothing actually to do with spring, but Marsaili always makes me think of it.
Maybe Blythe too.
And Elspeth.
