Hi wondering about a name for baby girl. I like India, Violet and Daisy.
Many thanks

Of the three I prefer Violet, but I also think India is pretty and much less common than the other two. There are a lot of Daisys and Violets around at the mo.

celtictoast · 08/10/2015 13:49

I like Violet and Daisy.

WhyCantIuseTheNameIWant · 08/10/2015 14:20

I love India. Indi is cute.

Indiana is sweet too.

I also like daisy. Another less-common name here.

Not as keen on violet. I know it's quite trendy, but seems a bit old fashioned to me. And a bit to similar to 'violent' too.

Thanks! My other girls are Hannah Naomi Phoebe and Florence...any other suggestions welcome!!

My dd5 middle name is violet. Another name above is dd1, sadly she was stillborn, but it was a name I adored for yrs before she was born.

Does anyone think India's a bit try too hard?

JaneAustinAllegro · 08/10/2015 15:47

it doesn't match the other names which are much more classic. Violet is lovely (and are you tempted with Quinta as a middle name? five girls is quite a fantastic achievement, you should mark it!)

I have an Annalise to go with my Phoebe

Katz · 08/10/2015 15:49

But Hannah and Anna would be confusing!

storm1974 · 08/10/2015 15:52

OOh Quinta is lovely!! I also like Dolly but I feel this suits baby/child but not adult...

My favourite from your list is Violet and it goes beautifully with your other children's names.

LettuceLaughton · 08/10/2015 16:28

Dorothy / Dorathea would work as a full name for Dolly. Plenty of other nickname potential too.

storm1974 · 08/10/2015 16:32

Bluebell and Jemima are also on my list any thoughts?

OP posts:
Pandora97 · 08/10/2015 17:22

I think Bluebell's a bit silly for a first name but I do like Violet and Daisy. I think Jemima goes really well the your other girls' names.

ThePug · 08/10/2015 21:04

I read your DD's names and immediately thought '.... and Jessica'. No idea why, but I think it goes!

Secondtimeround75 · 08/10/2015 21:06

Vivienne came to my mind

Ipushedmygrannyaffabus · 09/10/2015 02:32

Jemima goes well and I like Violet and India - I think it's quite fab rather than try-hard! Bluebell is daft and daisy is a bit little-girly. What about

Louisa
Rebecca
Jocasta
Sadie
Leona/Leonie
Zoe

Babbafish · 09/10/2015 02:37

KoalaDownUnder · 09/10/2015 02:58

Oh, I adore Cleo!!

What about
Dahlia
Delilah
Saskia
Mirabel
Azalea
Carys

PitilessYank · 09/10/2015 06:57

Eleanor
Sarah
Rachel
Ruth
Elizabeth
Violet is also very pretty

storm1974 · 09/10/2015 12:51

Thanks to everyone's suggestions... Really helpful! If anyone has any other ideas they would all be well received... Boho, earthy, vintage that goes with the other girls names...
