Cottagecore girl names
Cottagecore girl names live in a different decade — petticoats, hedgerow herbs, hand-stitched linen, the kind of childhood that involves naming the chickens. The cluster pulls from English garden traditions (Lily, Rose, Iris, Daisy), nature words (Hazel, Wren, Willow, Juniper), and softer Victorian revivals (Posey, Nora, Ottilie, Esme). Most of them are under three syllables and pair beautifully with vintage middle names.
