Girl flower theme names: Iris, Lillya, Dalia(h),Violet/Violette, Jasmin?
My hubby and I picked out girl names that mean flower but I want middle names any suggestions and do you like the names? Surname is Bosque sounds french but not pronounced like it. Thank You to all P.S note I would like to pick first names that are easy to pronounce in spanish for my parents and inlaws they speak and understand english but I want names that don't sound ridiculous in spanish thanks.

Good suggestion, R - Our daughter is Daisy Grace! I think flower names are beautiful - really feminine and pretty.
These lovely old-fashioned flower names are coming back, but paired with a really modern middle name, they might sound silly. Try to stick with fairly traditional names like Ruby, Anne, Adelaide, Beth, Edie etc. Think of names that women of your grandmother or great grandmother' era might have had.
Also, maybe pair it with "virtues" names like Hope, Faith, Verity, Prudence, Grace.
EDIT: please note that the flower is spely D-A-H-L-I-A with the A in the middle.

What a pretty idea!
Out of the ones you mentioned, I like Dalia Danae.
Personally, I would scrap Jasmine because of the Disney princess, though. If you like the jasmine flower in particular, maybe consider the French version, Jessamine/Jessina. Maybe Jessamine Estella? Some other ideas for you:
Delilah Araceli Bosque
Jacinta Gabriella Bosque
Saffron Elean Bosque
Tansy Jade Bosque
Zinnia Angelina Bosque
I'm not sure how it's pronounced in Spanish, but I love Ianthe. It's Latin for 'violet', so it's still a flower name, but more unusual. Ianthe Penelope, maybe?

My favorite "girl flower names" are Dalilah or Iris! I think they're both adorable. Also, both go very well with your last name. As far as the first name being easily pronounced by your Spanish-speaking parents and in-laws, I think Iris would probably be easier to pronounce than Delilah. More easily than Iris would be Violet/Violette though. But, just make sure you name your baby the name you love! Don't just name it something you only like 'cause it's easier to pronounce - your parents and in-laws can learn!!! :o)
As for middle names, consider...
Iris Shaye Bosque
Iris Olivia Bosque
Iris Kayla Bosque
Delilah Rose Bosque
Delilah Elise Bosque
Delilah Corynn Bosque
Hope this helps! *Congrats!*

Violet Angelina
Iris Amelia
Lillian or Lilliana is also a good form of Lily... or Lily Anna to be complete with Middle name
You could go with Yasmin for a spanish twist on Jasmine.
Yasmin Eden
I'd stay away from Grace, Marie, and Lynn as middle names. Everyone uses them just to fill the space.

I really like Daisy. From your list my favorite is Violet and I think most names would sound good as a middle name for it.

How about months as middle names?
Iris June
Lillya May
Daliah August
Violet January
Jasmin October
If you don't like that then how about gem stones/jewels:
Iris Pearl
Lillya Opal
Daliah Emerald
Violet Sapphire
Jasmin Ruby

How about "Fleur" it's flower in French? Or Peony? Or Chrysanthemum? Or Heather? Or Sage?
