f-loren-ce

The boy's and girl's name Florence \f-loren-ce, fl(o)-re-nce\ is pronounced FLOR-ens. It is of Latin origin, and its meaning is "flowering, in bloom". Florence also means prosperous or blooming. Modern use is almost entirely inspired by the fame of Florence Nightingale, who was actually named for the Italian city where she was born. This name was ranked one of the most popular names.

I have a VERY common name.
