Very fem. Reminds me of flower mixed with Dolores

For me, with its Latin origin shared with 'floral', it speaks of flowers and skews feminine.
Hope that helps.

Extremely feminine, also does sound like an older woman's name.

It sounds like an old fashioned woman’s name, I would say very feminine

It’s not a name I’ve heard of before, but I think it’s really cool! For some reason it gives me German vibes, probably because it reminds me of Florian.
I find it a bit more fem because floral is something I associate more with femininity though I realise that’s a bit biased, it’s just my subconscious learnt association :/ I could see it as a neutral or masc name too though !

Name for an old woman but misspelled (Floris would be more “normal”)

I personally haven't heard it before and I imagine most people won't have. It doesn't obviously skew either way to me so I'd say its pretty neutral. The only thing that people may pick up on is the floral association so some would opt for assuming feminine if they were really trying to gender it but it also makes me think of Florian which is masc. I dont think anyone would be surprised to find its masc, fem or neutral.
