Re: Begonia and other unusual flower names
in reply to a message by Llewella
I thought it might be off-putting as well... however I asked the pickiest (well, second pickiest) person I know, my mother. She loved it! In fact, she may have been the one to suggest it at one point.
I happen to like the odd clunk of 'Beg' and might even consider Bego or Bega as a nickname. Though, I am sure Nia would be the more appropriate nickname choice. I don't know... I am just crushing on Begonia right now.
Jonquil would be great on a boy. Rose would be unexpected, but I think I could handle it.
Baptisia is darling.
