Middle name needed for Violet

36 replies

Violet is becoming more popular so we're looking for a less common middle name.

I like middle names such as Rose, Sky etc but Violet is already a nature name so we're stuck!

do also like names such as Emerson and Aubrey.

Any suggestions?

Elizabeth

Violet Rose and Violet May are both pretty and actually not too naturey as they're all established names (vs 'Summer Blue' etc)

I'd put another traditional name with it rather than Emerson or Aubrey - Grace? Jane?

How long's your surname? Think of
Violet Jane Brown vs
Violet Grace Fotherington-Thomas

Maybe look up some names that mean blue but aren't actually the word blue?

Not stupid, just a bit too colourful.

Actually I've just said that out loud and it doesn't sound great.

Violet Myrtle?

Not keen on the Mae spelling - what's its origin?

How about another flower like Rose?

Drybonesthatdream · 05/07/2017 10:45

Violet Evangeline? I like violet mae. Violet Isabelle is pretty too.
