Baby Names Meaning Flower

Flower names are perennial favourites — delicate, fresh and full of natural beauty. They range from specific blooms (Lily, Violet, Rose) to names that simply mean 'flower' or 'blossom' (Florence, Fleur, Yasmin). Gathered here from Latin, English, Persian, Japanese and beyond, each is noted with its origin and the bloom it evokes. Whether you want a soft vintage flower name or something more unexpected, this collection brings together the loveliest floral choices for a baby.

Flower names divide between named blooms (Lily, Iris, Jasmine, Dahlia) and general 'flower/blossom' names (Florence, Fleur, Sakura). The first feel specific and characterful; the second feel soft and romantic.

They pair beautifully with other nature names for siblings, and many double as gentle middle names.
