Flora being the actual name of Moon Presence matches so well, actually? (Apparently the "nameless" bit was edited out of Japanese original and localizations simply didn't catch up with that, but yeah... although Gehrman addressing her as Flora is a cut content dialogue, paired with the fact that "nameless" bit was retracted I think it is safe to assume that Doll does say her name and not like.. just Kin plant-life in general!)
But, again, Flora. Like, plants. In Bloodborne lore, plants, more specifically flowers, reach for the 'Stars' in the sky! Sun itself is also a star, and the Moon only shines because reflecting the light of the Sun, so, because of the star. It is played as though she is "superior" compared to the 'stars', but it only makes sense that as a 'moon' she is jealous and usurps the power! It is in how Moon doesn't glow itself and is just a dark rock no one can see without reflecting the light of the star, and how the flora(plantlife) in Bloodborne reaches for the star. This is just so clever
