Ivy
Violet
Autumn
April

Just because of how they sound together

What else do you have?
If you have to choose one of these I prefer ivy except for the Beyoncé link or Kim kardashian or whoever it is.

KlingybunFistelvase · 06/02/2017 14:19

Autumn - lovely!

RedSauce · 06/02/2017 14:20

Ivy
Autumn
Neither of the other two

Ivy by a country mile.
April has been ruined by becoming too popular. Plus you've got to have a connection to the month. If you're due In April. Its not a bad name. In itself.
Autumn. Although not as popular. I still think you have to have an Autumn connection to carry the name off.

If you do choose April or Autumn expect lots of was she born in Autimn/April questions.

Violet is fine. I just don't like it on a personal level.

Favour? Or Flavia. Cos of how they sound together.

or, to be serious,

Juliet
Susannah
Edith/Edie
Maria

April has been ruined by becoming too popular.

How do you work that out? April is the least popular of those names on the OP's list Grin

Bear2014 · 06/02/2017 15:31

I would find it really weird if a baby was called April but not born in April, or called Autumn and not born in Autumn, for some reason. Really like Ivy and Violet, would personally go with Ivy.

EggsEleven · 06/02/2017 15:50

Preference:

Ivy
Violet
Autumn
April

They are all nice names imo but I think Ivy or Violet go better with Grace

Scattymere · 06/02/2017 15:54

Violet by far- is gorgeous and sounds lovely with Grace. Ivy is so so popular but can't ever shake that old lady feel like Ethel. April nice but bit American cheerleader and Autumn just doesn't sound like a name to me.

starkers1 · 06/02/2017 15:57

Yup, Ivy is everywhere. Just stupidly trendy - people are grappling for more vintagey names that weren't very popular, Ivy is one of the last and now everyone's using it so it's not unique at all now.
Violet is the most lovely on your list by a long way.

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 06/02/2017 15:58

I love Autumn and Ivy. Not keen on others.

reuset · 06/02/2017 15:59

Ivy is certainly popular at the moment, most popular in that list probably. I'm just a bit Hmm I haven't met or heard of any in a while

meettherussians · 06/02/2017 16:04

Violet is the best by a mile. So pretty, graceful but still upbeat.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 06/02/2017 17:49

I think Violet goes the best with Grace.

Jayfee · 06/02/2017 17:52

would violette be too pretentious. just violette szabo was such a heroine.

Sophronia · 06/02/2017 18:17

I'm so bored of Ivy and Violet, so would choose one of the others.

GreatScot8 · 06/02/2017 20:09

Ivy.

Otherwise, Violet.

I don't like Autumn and I don't think April goes well with Grace. Smile

katherine775 · 07/02/2017 17:56

Ivy goes well with Grace❤Xx

Kazzawazza69 · 07/02/2017 21:42

My favourite of those is April but I don't think it goes that well with Grace. I also wouldn't use it if baby wasn't born in April. I think Violet goes best with Grace.
