Re: What would you suggest?
in reply to a message by New_Chloe
It'd depend on the person. I might go for names from ancient cultures that aren't in common use, or medieval names, or obscure gods/goddesses, or unusual Latin plant names. Someone else might like fantasy-type names, or South American-style mashups.
Would you be wanting an actual list here eh eh?

Yes! List away! Almost all my suggestions for them are not unique enough. It's an interesting challenge!

Thank you so much Pie!! You are a gem.
I like Fritha! I came across one about ten years ago when I temped for an insurance company and made a note of it. I have always wanted to use one in a story.
Dorchadas did an excellent plant-name list:
