It’s fine I don’t know why you need to ask opinions about it. I ha e a Victoria and I love all the names beginning with a V.

HeyJude81 · 18/04/2019 11:33

I think it’s really pretty! Makes me think of happy summer days! Beautiful x

DramaAlpaca · 18/04/2019 11:33

Oh I like it! Good choice.

mondler · 18/04/2019 11:34

I like it

formerbabe · 18/04/2019 11:35

Nice!

daisypond · 18/04/2019 11:35

I’m not keen. I don’t like Violet at all- I tend to hear violent, and violets are pervasive small weeds as well. I quite like Summer, though. Violet Summer sounds a bit like a paint colour or air freshener.

Luaa · 18/04/2019 11:42

I love it

freedommass · 18/04/2019 11:44

Thanks everyone Grin

Lovely and bright sounding! I love both Violet and Summer separately and usually wouldn't put 2 word names together, but then again why not!

LittleKitty1985 · 18/04/2019 13:20

I agree with @daisypond - I think putting Violet before a noun like Summer does make it sound more like "violent"

Violent Summer would make a good band name though

AppleKatie · 18/04/2019 13:29

^ exactly this. It sounds like a band or a brand of something not a baby’s name. Sorry.

BentBaastard · 18/04/2019 13:31

Really awful

I see Purple and Yellow which clashes terribly. 😨😨

FenellaMaxwell · 18/04/2019 13:31

It’s a bit saccharine with two nouns together but not unpleasant

SallyWD · 18/04/2019 13:32

Two of my favourite names!

Balletmummyxx · 18/04/2019 13:35

It’s beautiful. Go with your gut. Love Violet

Roseyflowers · 18/04/2019 14:08

I love Summer a but not as keen on Violet.

TrendyNorthLondonTeen · 18/04/2019 14:19

Sounds like a cocktail!

TriarFuck · 18/04/2019 14:29

Violet is great. Summer less so. It's a season, not a name (IMO).

freedommass · 18/04/2019 17:20

I was a little bit worried about using 2 nouns for reasons mention! But then again i love both names.

Yes I agree about Violent Summer.

Summer is nice!

LettuceLeave · 18/04/2019 20:16

@BentBaastard purple and yellow are my favorite contrasting colours Grin

I think it's a lovely name OP.

LettuceLeave · 18/04/2019 20:17

It's reminds me of a lovely purple summer sunset!

Whoops75 · 18/04/2019 20:20

Go for it
She will be violet surname, summer is a cute middle name.

BentBaastard · 18/04/2019 20:47

@LettuceLeave

My synesthesia is obviously playing up 🤣🤣
