Here are 22 beautiful botanical baby names to put on your list!
Alder
With Germanic roots, Alder means “old.” We think this name will mature nicely. Alder trees are a part of the birch family.
Aspen
While this name is more popular for boys, we think it’s just a lovely name for a little girl. Aspen trees are known for their glorious fall color and quaking leaves.
Willow
Rosemary
Holly
Ivy
Hazel
Angelica
While a certain cartoon from the 1990s may have ruined this name, there has been enough time to separate the connection.
Poppy
Juniper
Lavender
This name appears in the children’s book “Matilda,” and we think it’s a beautiful, uncommon first name.
Linden
Olive
Violet
Ginger
Yarrow
Zinnia
Dahlia
Heather
This name was common in the 70’s and 80’s. It’s still a pretty plant name especially if you have Scottish ancestry.
Iris
Roselle
Maple
This name appears in Lori Nichols’ series of books about two adorable sisters, Maple and Willow.
