Violet or Seren

AverageMummy · 26/06/2019 16:57

I never really know how to say Seren

Violet is lovely

Opal is very unusual - not my taste but nice

TillyTheTiger · 26/06/2019 16:58

Seren

I like Seren. Doesn’t it mean Star?

Marty93 · 26/06/2019 17:03

Violet!

Seren - I just imagine a loud horrid child - like a siren 🚨

Opal - like opal fruit? 🥴

Strongecoffeeismydrug · 26/06/2019 17:19

Definitely seren .
Violet is becoming a little too popular

carbuncleonapigsposterior · 26/06/2019 17:21

Seren lovely
Violet old fashioned name back in vogue, quite nice as long as it's not shortened to Vi.
Opal - not good

Sagradafamiliar · 26/06/2019 17:22

I'd go for Pearl over Opal. It was on my list along with Violet and Seren

MikeUniformMike · 26/06/2019 17:25

Violet is the only one that is ok. Opal is what MN calls a stripper name and Seren is the current Shannon. and will be very dated when she is older.

teenmum18 · 26/06/2019 17:30

Violet is my favourite 💜
Not keen on seren but have a cousin called senen.
Opal is alright.

Violet. Opal makes me think of Opel, the east European car.

Violet is gorgeous. Seven is pretty too. Opal doesn’t do it for me at all
