Default Flowery dog name needed!

Hello

I'm getting a border collie bitch soon and she needs pretty flowerery name. So
far I've come up with ... Willow, Poppy, Rowan, Holly, Sorrel, Tansy, Daisy,
Fern, Saffron and Jasmine. Can anyone think of any more?

Thankyou

Aaaargggghhhh. Pretty flowery names might do for a ditsy labrador, but
puhlease, give a border collie a proper dog name that it won't be
ashamed of in public :-) Traditionally, border collies use a plain
single syllable name.

Janet.

Janet.

Such as Bo, Fig, Ivy, May, Pia, Sal?

Incidentally, one of my retrievers is called 'Holly' - but Ditsy's not
in Chambers, and is a word I've not come across before. Which
particular Labrador trait is it describing?

Please, please, please, DO NOT call it Holly. If I hear of one more dog
named Holly, I'll scream --- probably because my daughter is named Holly
(she was born at Christmas). IMHO, dogs should have "proper" dog names,
like Rover, Spot, Scruffy, Lady, but not "human" names.

A friend of mine had a dog named Agapanthus - Pantha to her friends. ;-)

We have a female cat called officially Chrysanthemum, who would want to open
the front door and calling out that late at night.
It's why she is now Coco after the rather nice feminine perfume, much more
suitable.

I remember Coco as a very famous clown. :-(
