Violet is a much nicer name than Hazel, IMO. Congrats and best wishes

I like both but Violet is one of my twins middle names so I vote that.

Hazel Wren (or Wren Violet if that's an option).

Hazel Wren is lovely..... We very nearly had Wren as a middle name for one of our twins and at the last minute decided on no middle names, I wish we had now

I really really like Hazel Wren. What fab names you choose!

I've always thought that it's best to avoid names that are adjectives if they will be followed by nouns, so would discount Violet Wren on that basis. But that's just me.

Hazel Wren. It's really pretty and I think Hazel is less heard than Violet at the mo.

Hazel is still too much a 1970s middle aged name to me. Usually screeched: "Ayzullllllll!" round here.

Violet is cute.

I think Violet's a beautiful name. I know it's popular but I wouldn't care, I love it so much.

Hazel is just fine, IMO.

Hazel I think. Because otherwise it's like you are saying 'Violent Wren' - as in Violent bird... I always think Violet is one letter away from the word violent though...

Violet is lovely.

I still don't understand why Wren is now a name, but that is by the by.

I think nature names are so lovely. My DD was nearly a Violet. Maybe wait til you see her and see which one suits her more? I think both options are equally nice!
