I thought about Jasmine, but unfortunately now too many people will think of the Disney princess and not the flower.
And yes, knowing the breed would help.

And how could I have forgotten that in the original draft of
Gone With the Wind, Margaret Mitchell's heroine wasn't named Scarlett -- she was named Pansy.
And as for flowers, perhaps WVU alpha phi would like Lily (of the Valley).
Continuing the literary and movie trend,
Clara or Eula ("The Long Hot Summer)
Zilphia, Adie, Jewel, Cora, Caddy, Dilsey (Faulkner)
Calpurnia or Maudie (but
not Mayella) (
To Kill a Mockingbird)
Blanche or Stella ("A Streetcar Named Desire")
