Tansy

Flower name, from Greek, "immortality"

Light and bright with a yellow hue, Tansy is a rare floral name with a similar feel to Daisy and Poppy. It’s theorized that the name Tansy may have come from athanasia, a Greek word meaning “immortality”, adding a mystical and powerful layer to the otherwise sweet and whimsy name.

Given to just eight girls in 2024, it’s an offbeat choice, bringing to mind the summer when its yellow, button-like flowers are in bloom.
