Cassia Primrose/Violet.

Not Juno.

I love all of those, especially Primrose, but I'm biased because I have a Primrose! Named after her great Grandma Smile

LittlePandaBear · 15/09/2013 15:26

I think Cassia is pretty.

I like the name Violet but when written down it's too close to Violent for me. And mixed with Juno I could read it as Judo and it's Judo Violent.

I accept that it's how my strange mind works and no one else may make that connection so feel free to ignore me!

I meant I would pronounce it Cass-ee-a

Saffyz · 15/09/2013 09:56

I'd pronounce it "Cassia", definitely not Casha.

Saffyz · 15/09/2013 09:55

Cassia Violet

Love primroseSmile

I like Juno Violet more. Cassia Primrose doesn't flow as well for me.

charleslingus · 15/09/2013 08:18

Another vote for juno violet, it's gorgeous.

UpTheFRIGGinDuff · 15/09/2013 07:55

Juno violet.

It's just lovely Smile

Cassia Violet.
Primrose is horrible and reminds me of Dr Shipman's wife (sorry). Sad

fanjodisfunction · 15/09/2013 07:43

Cassia Violet, sounds better to my ears.

topicsactiveimon · 15/09/2013 07:38

Love Cassia & Violet & really like Juno, too. Not keen on Primrose at all - it's the word 'prim' - just ruins Rose for me.

So... Cassia Rose?

rachel234 · 15/09/2013 07:31

Love Cassia! Elegant, feminine and not overused.

Juno sounds masculine, sorry.

Rooners · 15/09/2013 07:17

I love both but prefer Cassia Primrose because in my mind it is really pretty colours (have that word=colour thing, sorry!) and also very unusual.

I think Juno is becoming very trendy and so is Violet and though they are beautiful separately and together, I still think the other name is just stunning, and no one will be able to roll their eyes and say 'not another one!'

Also primroses are beautiful.
I think you could do worse than wait till you meet her and see which she suits best. Juno is a darker haired child to me. Cassia is very fair and light.

Awful

I like Cassia Primrose...not a huge fan of Juno. I do love Violet as I have a great Auntie by that name...

TheFallenNinja · 15/09/2013 04:03

Neither, they both sound like cars.
