Lydia Violet! Definitely. My own 7 year old DD is a Lydia and it often gets positive comments. Not too unusual but haven't met any others either. Go for it!

Violet Eliza!
Congratulations!

Lydia Violet - on the basis that I have not met a single baby Lydia (my eldest dc is 11).

Love all your names including Natasha and Gabriella!

Rhubarbgarden · 22/06/2015 11:03

Congratulations! I vote Violet Eliza.

Natasha (Rose)
Gabriella ( Louise)

Rhubarbgarden · 21/06/2015 21:41

Violet or Natasha

littlejohnnydory · 21/06/2015 20:20

Violet Eliza!

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 21/06/2015 14:25

I like Violet Eliza. Eliza is one of DD's middle names Smile.

I know a 2 year old Natasha and it really suits her! There are Natasha's under 25 about - just not so many, which is probably a good thing when it comes to avoiding being one of many at school.

Gabriella/Gabrielle I like, but I really don't like the nn Gabby. Too similar to gobby for me.

Lydia I really dislike. It conjures up a mental image of something with too many lids Blush. Not a nice name for a person.

RedToothBrush · 21/06/2015 14:12

Eliza, Lydia and Natasha - I'd avoid another a ending tbh
Violet - Nice but I fear is the next Lily
Gabriella - Definitely go for Gabrielle with a sister Amelia

If I'm honest I think you are subconsciously going for a lot of names that are a bit too similar to Amelia.

FunkyPeacock · 21/06/2015 10:59

All lovely names, my order of preference would be:
Eliza (my 2nd favourite girls name after my DD's name)
Natasha
Violet
Lydia
Gabriella

KoalaDownUnder · 21/06/2015 10:55

Agreed, Lydia Violet is stunning.

I now want to have a baby girl just so I can call her Lydia Violet Grin

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 20/06/2015 20:55

Lydia violet is fabulous!

Pagerty · 20/06/2015 13:25

I love Eliza, it's one of my top girls names but I am not keen on it with Amelia (maybe as the both end in a). Violet Eliza is beautiful.

KoalaDownUnder · 20/06/2015 12:14

Yep, Lydia and/or Violet.

Like all the rest, except Natasha (dated).

WorldsBiggestGrotbag · 20/06/2015 08:50

Lydia Violet

Allthatnonsense · 20/06/2015 08:45

Lydia or Eliza.

StupidBloodyKindle · 19/06/2015 23:40

Lydia or Natasha
Ditch Violet

StupidBloodyKindle · 19/06/2015 23:38

Aurelia Wink

voluptuagoodshag · 19/06/2015 23:34

Eliza. Love that name. Would be my choice if I had another girl.
