Ivy :)

My best friends dd is violet and an old school friend has an Ivy. I adore both names. Sorry I can't help decide! Maybe wait till they arrive and see which feels right.

I had great aunt twins named Ivy & Violet (Ivy & Vi).

Sativa · 30/09/2016 01:27

Violet by a mile

My baby girl is a Violet so mines a biased vote. Pic for cuteness 😊

Ivy or Violet?

Violet- with Ivy as nn. I love the older, vintage names coming back, but ask yourself, would you want to be called Ivy? I personally wouldn't- same as the name Olive (cut as it is on a little girl) as to they're just not pretty or feminine, while Violet is.

Loafingaround · 30/09/2016 09:41

-sorry Ivy as middle name!

EvaWild · 30/09/2016 09:44

Wow, these are both very beautiful names. I cannot decide which one I like more :)

gettingitwrongputingitright · 30/09/2016 09:52

Both beautiful. Sorry no help! Also like Iris.

GoldPlatedBacon · 30/09/2016 15:58

Violet is my favourite.

Statistically Ivy is more popular if that's any help

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 30/09/2016 19:19

Aww, lovely bubba !
Violet.

buddy79 · 30/09/2016 20:08

Love both but would go Violet. Ivy makes me think of Ivy in Shakespeare that sucks the verdure out... But that is very random! They're both lovely names.

sampras · 30/09/2016 20:09

Violet. Ivy sounds... dark.

Violet.

inmyheadimthequeen · 01/10/2016 21:56

Violet, although both are nice.

Treadlightly · 01/10/2016 21:58

Both are lovely
I have a little ivy & she has a friend called violet :)

NuffSaidSam · 01/10/2016 22:47

Definitely Violet.

Ivy looks horrible written down.

Ivy is an ugly plant imo.

IV means intravenous.

The Ivy is a sleb hang-out restaurant.

And it just makes me thing of Ivy from Coronation Street!
