History & Origin

Floree is a homespun elaboration of the old flower names Flora and Florence, both from the Latin floris. This particular spelling was always scarce, reaching its modest high around 1919.

Never common, it was given to only a handful of girls a year, and it belonged mostly to the early decades of the century. A girl named Floree at that peak would be from a great-grandmother's generation today. It has a soft, old-country sweetness that suits its floral roots.

Did you know? Floree blossoms from the Latin flos, meaning flower, the same root that gives us Flora, the Roman goddess of spring, and the fuller name Florence.
