Violet Olivia or Olivia Violet?
(27 Posts)She's 2 weeks old (I've tried both names!)
Violet Olivia. Congrats by the way!
Partly depends on your surname. You don't want initials VOM!
Violet Olivia 😊 Congratulations!
Definitely Violet Olivia - Olivia is way too common as a first name.
Violet Olivia
I would have said Olivia, but seeing as it was number 1 in 2016 I would avoid - I don't have a problem with popular names but think it's a shame when they have to be Olivia A, Olivia B etc.
That being said the youngest Olivia I know is 21, and I know lots of new babies.
Violet is a beautiful name though so isn't a great loss
Violet Olivia, beautiful name. Congratulations.

Congratulations! Olivia Violet rolls off the tongue better, but how often will you say both names together? I much prefer Violet as a first name.
She'd be one of at least 5 Olivia's/Olivers/Olives in her class at school.
I like both though probably prefer Violet. Personally, I'd steer away from Violet Olivia - reminds me a bit much of Violet Elizabeth in the "Just William" books as it sounds similar - but I'm an old fogey and she won't use her mn much day to day!
Sounding like Violet Elizabeth wouldn't bother me at all!
Thank you for the replies. Seems that Violet Olivia is preferred
Violet Elizabeth was actually her whole name though.
Most people aren't going to know that Violet's middle name is Olivia.
I prefer Violet Olivia. Both beautiful

It's just a bit less popular.
Beautiful name either way, and congrats!
