A girls (flower?) name?

i need several flower names for girls for a story I'm writing.





the main character is named Lily Evans. a middle name for Lily would be apreciated (also flower. every girl in her family has a flower name.).





all of the characters are 17 and were born in the early 60's (so it takes place in 1977 or 78 in britan.





all of Lily's best friends go to the same boarding school as her and they have a sort of club beacause they all have flower names.





if you have any idea what this club should be called, let me know.

A girls (flower?) name?
This is probably really nerdy of me, but isn't Lily Evans the name of Harry Potter's mother?





Anyway, it would still be a great character name. I love someone else's suggestion of Lily Susanna, it sounds very 60's free love kind of thing lol.





Her friends could be: Violet, Dahlia, Marigold, Rose, Bluebell (another really hippie name lol), Fern (she could be the quiet one), Linnea (the exotic one, Linnea means lime tree), Azalea, Daisy, Poppy, Camilla (very British), Florrie / Flora, Hazel (Zel), Ginger, Heather, Holly, Ivy, Iris, Wisteria, Willow, Zinnia, Sorrel, Sage, Saffron, Pansy, Magnolia, May, Laurel, Juniper, Jasmine, etc. Well, obviously not all of them, but those are some options for you lol.





Since these girls are born in the early 60's, some of them could have zanier names, if their parents were all into hippies and stuff, like Bluebell or Juniper, or they could just be well and proper British people (they can afford to send their daughters to a boarding school after all lol) and so some could have names like Camilla or Rose.





As for the name of their club, it could be something really upfront like something Garden-related, or they could just be really wacky friends and pick something totally insane and irrelevant lol just to confuse people.





Good luck writing!!
