Sibling for Violet.

had a shortlist we were happy with but now unsure

Sophie
Alice
Juliet

I think the et for Juliet and Violet is too much. I’ve been put off the other two after hearing some people discuss them and they seem to be super popular in our area ‘no not that Sophie, Sophie you know the one who lives in X no not the one who lives in Y etc’

I am at a bit of a loss now. We can’t do

  • any names ending in -y sound due to surname (so Emily Natalie etc)
  • Charlotte Isabelle Eva Lily Rose Elizabeth Emma Anna as these are cousins names
  • any names with same initial or any plant names/nature names due to using Violet already as I think it would be a bit much

help!

Violet is lovely.

I think Alice goes very well.
I do really like Juliet but agree the two 'et' sounds are a bit much, but I'd still use if you love the name

I'd also suggest
Hazel
Dorothy
Olivia
Amelia

Alice is my favourite girl’s name so I’d choose that.

I also really like the previous suggestions of Clara, Imogen or Florence.

Or

Eliza
Eloise
Georgia
Mabel
Amber
Lila
Layla
Freya
Martha
Lydia
Ava
Cora
Jessica
Madeleine
