Florian Kaye vs. On a girl

Is the name Florian usable on a little girl? It would be after her grandfather Floriano. We know of one famous, female-bearer: Dido. We think her music is wonderful, so it only makes associations more positive. We don't like Flora or Floriana with our last name, and we can't use Florence. Help!

If Floriana or Flora doesn't work then Florian probably doesn't either. and Florian's boyish

Too masculine. Don't like it.

How about just Flori?
I don't think Floriana is okay with your last name. It is much cuter than Florian and adorable with Kay.

Florian is all boy.

I only like Florian for a boy. Florie would be nice though, it was originally a nickname for Florence.

To be honest, I do not like Florian for a girl at all.

Maybe Flor? Or Floriana for a mn?

I just don't think it works for a girl.

Perhaps Flower or Blossom to honor Florian, as the name means bloom/flower?

I'm not a big fan of Florian on a girl.

Here are some other ideas:
Fleur
Floralie
Flordelis
Florencia
Florentia
Florentina or Florentine
Florenza
Floretta or Florette
Floriane / Florianne
Florice / Florisse
Florie / Flory / Florrie / Florry
Florina or Florine
Floris / Florise
Florita

I think it's okay for a girl, but I definitely prefer it for a boy. If I were going to use it for a girl, I would use it as a middle name instead.

I prefer Floriane or Florianne for a girl, both of which are French feminine names.

No, I don't like Florian on a girl.

If you feel you must use Florian for a girl, definitely make it a mn. It just isn't flattering for a female.

Speaking as someone with a "masculine" name, I'm usually pretty open to using names regardless of gender, but this feels tooooo masculine. Especially when there are so many beautiful alternatives.

Flori, Florianne
Florianella (as in feminine version of 'little' honoring to the older Floriano)

It's a boy name so no and I don't like Kaye either. Sorry

Kaitlyn Flora would be nice

I think the suggestion of Florianne or Floriane are really pretty! While I do think of the name Florian as a boys name (only because a male character I adored in a book as a teen was named Florian haha), it hasn't been in the Top 1000 boys names (in the US) since…1941. So over half a century ago, a whopping 48 newborn boys were named Florian. Soooo I don't know if it SUPER matters or that the majority of people your daughter came into contact with would have ever heard the name.
