April or Violet?

[tay555]

Which do you prefer (and why) Note she won't be born in April! Thanks

April as I wouldn't like Vi as a shortened version.

responses seem 50 /50!

Of the two, I prefer Violet.

Love Violet, it was on my list. I keep hearing it's becoming really popular but I have two children under two and I'm yet to meet a little Violet. Ava, Isla, Ivy all seem very popular atm.

Not keen on April.

Also not keen on Viola, I just hear Vulva :)

April. It's so pretty

Violet seeks on track to become the next Ava. Bit faddy and not as pretty as April.

April

Violet will inevitably become Vi which is just awful. I'm another who also misreads the full name as Violent which is another reason against it.

I know an April who gets called Apes though. Something to consider.

I like April, also Avril, both vetoed by DH. I do quite like Violet, too, but it's quite close to 'violent' in my mind.

I guess Apes and Vi could both be corrected

April

Violet always. Definitely not a fan of April.

April.

I can't get past thinking 'violent' when I hear Violet.

bump! any more opinions to help me out

I like April. Not keen on Violet because I hate the colour!
