HelpRe: Begonia and other unusual flower names
in reply to a message by whim
Nella Begonia is adorable! It packs quite a punch in the middle, doesn't it?
I think I prefer it in the middle too, but if I were to use it, it would have to take the FN spot. I am glad to see that someone likes it, like me. I know it's an unconventional appeal... but I do really like it. The imagery is just so attractive.
- I know a Briar! There is a Briar at the company I work for, so I always think of it as a boy name. I think he is a Briar Jonathan. But, I like Briar Alistair or Briar Marcel a lot. Phlox I have never thought of... but I do like Fox soo...
Lilac is quite lovely. I mentioned somewhere else that I considered it to honor a Lila. It has a beauty in sound and imagery, making it a great RL choice. I also like the other flowers you listed.

Yeah... he is in his late 30s.
I am sure Briar has been in use for a long time though.
It first made the Social Security index in 1971 with 5 boys. It was used just for boys for a couple years... then in 1975, 5 girls were named Briar.
Minimal usage since... but there are always at least a few boys with the name since then.
