Nice names

A French person called Pascale, meaning Easter-time, may well have been born at Easter.

On the theme of names, could I again float Espar/Esper - the middle name of one of my grt-uncles. Has anyone seen this name before?

Also in 19thC West Yorks. my ancestors had a neighbour called Original Bower- always sticks in my mind.

I have a friend whose mother was called Ivy, her sisters were Rose, Violet. Peony and Myrtle.
I wonder if the parents were gardeners

   Other flowers used as names that I have come across are Daisy, Iris, Heather, Primrose and Marguerite.  A family who are very eco aware have a daughter named Maple (tree)    The name Flora seems to have lost its appeal since it became a brand name for a type of margarine.

Just as well the aforesaid child was not premature - otherwise she could have been called "Lent" !!

I think "Lent" would be preferable to "Maundy Thursday".

A local florists had 2 Saturday girls : Heather and Rose!
As a teacher I've come across many lovely (and to be frank also some rather unwise) names. I can't quote any of them, as the owners will still be alive, naturally. But imagine the surname Warrior with a ,shall we say, floral Christian name- what a delightful and beguiling combination.
