Are there ANY good flower name for boys?

[SarahBear]

So since I've had Violet, I've really wanted my next kid to have a flower name. Trouble is, what if I have a boy? There aren't so many flowers that work s boy names. The best I can think of is Camas. IT sounds like Cam which is short for Cameron, so then it kind of sounds like a boy name, right? What can you all think of? Anything? Hopefully the next one is a girl.

What about Aster or Ash.

 

[SarahBear]

With Aster, I can't help but think someone's going to notice that the first part of Aster is Ass. As for Ash, it's more of a tree than a flower, isn't it?

Cane
Reed
Lindon
Mandrake
Rowan
Birch
Sage
Thorn
Ash
Hickory
Spruce

most boys names are trees not flowers - makes sense as flowers aren't very masculine

 

[SweetWitch]

They're mostly plants, not flowers but:
Florian
Jacinto
Crisanto
Briar
Heather/Heath
Juniper
Hawthorn
Narcissus
Watson (there is a flower called watsonia)

You'd be fine with Aster - my son's name is Asher and I never think ass!

 

[SarahBear]

I better hope for a girl next time around! Or maybe I'll just go with Keith and not worry about the flowers ...

Well I wouldn't with Asher, because it doesn't sound like ass, whereas Aster does.

William (Sweet William)
Linden
Sage (plant rather than a flower but I love it so thought it deserved a mention )
Bay (same deal)
Florian (it means flower, that's close right??)
Jonquil

Hm... It seems the answer to my question is "no." Thanks everyone for trying!

 

[deafgal]

Or Forrest

 

[deafgal]

If you google masculine flower names, you may find some you might like

 

[deafgal]

Or Wolfsbane

Or laurel. If you are willing broaden your search to any plants

 

[Becksta]

Oakley?? Shortened to Oak?

 

[Butterball Ma]

I see a few posters have mentioned Sage. I know it's a plant, but it flowers beautifully, pretty purple flowers that the butterflies love. I'd also suggest looking at the Latin names, you're more likely to find a good inspiration.

Well dont go with Keith that is imo the worst guy name out there. These are all flowers not trees or just bushes but flowers I googled them and none of them were ugly flowers ethier and you can search their meanings on https://www.buzzle.com/articles/list-of-flower-names-and-meanings-of-flowers.html

Masculine flower names I found are
Nalin- Its a really pretty flower that grows in wet or muddy area's kinda looks like an over grown snap dragon

Basil - I knew a very nice Italian man named Basil he was a restaurant owner made the best sea food linguine

Sorrell little tiny yellow flower would be good if having a march baby cause they are the lil yellow flowers found among the clover

Amaranth is another masculine flower name its a tentacle like flower and a unique

Briar is a purple flowers with thorns so handsome but hard to cuddle like most men can be hee hee

Wolfsbane a sticking beautiful colbolt blue flower and would be an awesome name

Dianthus
Adonis
Laurel
Mallow
Vervain
Zephyranth

hope this helps
