[Opinions] WDYT of Iris?
I was listening to the song by the Goo Goo Dolls and realized that I actually really liked the name. I see it as a middle name, and I immediately thought of Olivia Iris. What do you think/any other combos?

I adore the name Iris. It's been #1 or at least close to #1 on my personal name list for 2 years now. I really hope that it doesn't get really popular, but it definitely seems to be much more popular here on the boards than it is off of them.I'm a fan of the Goo Goo Dolls song "Iris" too, which makes me like the name even more.Olivia Iris has a nice flow, but Olivia is so popular these days. Other ideas:
Madeline / Madeleine Iris
Vivian / Vivien / Vivienne Iris
Victoria Iris
Veronica Iris
Paulina Iris
Rebecca Iris
Rhiannon Iris
Simone Iris
Susannah / Susanna Iris
Livia Iris - Perhaps too close to Olivia though?
Corina Iris
Carina / Karina Iris
Cecily Iris
Genevieve Iris
Adelaide Iris
Miriam Iris
Josephine Iris
Danica Iris
Dania Iris
Tabitha Iris
Kathleen Iris
Helen Iris
Helena Iris
Lydia Iris
Michaela / Micaela Iris
Evelyn Iris

I had no idea it was so popular on the boards!
I love Madeleine Iris! You really got my naming style with your suggestions, too - I like Rebecca Iris, Rhiannon Iris, Adelaide Iris, and Lydia Iris as well.

The Goo Goo Dolls song is precisely the reason I can't stand this name! That, and like New_Chloe said, it's been running rampant on the boards, and I'm getting sick of it.

Save Iris for a middle name, because I think of a nasty hurricane with that name. Kinda of weird knowing that Michigan never gets such storms.

Getting over it real fastIt's like Invasion of the Iris on this board... I'll admit I found it refreshing at first, but now it is EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME and I am so over it.It's very pretty. Olivia Iris is very nice. Really boring but nice. I also like:Vivian Iris
Miriam Iris
Marian Iris
Lillian Iris
(apparently I really like the "ian" ending before Iris?)
Gwendolen Iris

I love Iris!
(Also, I'm not even a big Goo Goo Dolls fan, but "Iris" in my all-time favourite song and has been for years.)It's 6:30am. I've gotta go to bed. Combos coming later.
