Pretty sure these are my final 2 choices

Kitty
Violet

Which one and why? i dont want there to be multiple people in her class / friend group with this name so thats why im swayed towards Kitty as violet is climbing. All opinions welcomeSmile

Kitty would be my choice. the name violet reminds me too much of the word violence

I like both but...

Kitty does sound like it's for a young girl and not a grown woman. I would also tire of Hello Kitty jokes.

Violet is very pretty but I can imagine people querying "Violent?!" when hearing the name.

Definitely Violet

Badgoushk · 29/04/2017 20:58

For middle names what about Lark or Wren?
Kitty Lark
Violet Lark
Kitty Wren
Kitty Lark

What does your partner think? Mine would have vetoed Kitty I think!

all my family prefer Violet. I think i do too but the popularity puts me off. But might have to just get over that. Lark is a pretty name :)

Violet

Kitty only as nn for Katherine (or Kathleen etc). Not on it's on.

I like Katherine nn Kitty more than Violet but Violet more than full name Kitty

Don't like either but think Kitty could only work as a nick name. Violet sounds like it is going to be very popular so you need to be happy with that.
