Aurora Vs Violet

[abbie777]

Which one for my baby girl?

Me personally I'd go with Violet only because I don't like the nn Rory for girl.

Violet (or Viola). Aurora is pretty, but it can be a bit of a mouthful to say, and I think the Disney princess vibe might put me off a little.

Violet

Violet

Aurora suddenly very popular so lots of them. Violets was popular 10 years ago and there were loads then. I like both, only problem is violet gets shortened to Vi which puts me off.
I didnt know aurora was a disney name, just that its a dawn goddess. If your daughteris born at daybreak name her that! Violet Aurora is nice, (as long as your last name doesnt begin with a T!) But then so is Aurora Violet! Both lovely choices. It depends what sounds better with your last name and initials combination.

I'd choose Aurora over Violet, as I just see the word Violent (and the character Violet Beauregarde).

However if Viola was an option... Viola is beautiful, classical and elegant (and much less popular/trendy than Aurora or Violet.)

Seraphina is another option for us too, I don’t know anyone called Aurora or Violet, although Violet does seem much more popular as Aurora is trending downwards.

Violet

Violet. Aurora and Seraphina are too much.

My favourite name for years was Aureya, i met the kindest little girl with that name and it stuck with me. Unfortunately my partner hates it and we're having a boy haha. I prefer Aurora to violet but i like the nickname Rory

I really love Aurora

Violet

not Aurora. sounds like an orange squash drink to me.
also would cause problems for anyone with a speech impediment.
Violet or Viola is better.
Seraphima is lovely. not much heard in this country. good choice.

My friends DD is aurora, I find it such a mouthful I really don't like it, violet is lovely - also like Beatrix or Bea it feels along those vibes, more classically lovely. Aurora feels more chav/wag to me personally - sorry

I love both Aurora and Violet
Seraphina is far too frilly and complicated for my tastes @abbie777

Aurora nn Rory is sweet

Both nice but I prefer Violet.

Violet

I love Aurora but does it sound chavvy? I hope not as I’m definitely not a chav haha.

Violet, you're turning violet, Violet!

Really not a fan of Aurora, really is a bit of a mouthful to say. Much prefer Violet, Seraphina would inevitably be shortened to Sarah which is really a bit dated. So I’d definitely go for Violet!

@abbie777, Aila1994 sums it up, it's a bit of a mouthful.

If you know anyone who can't say r, it will be Ovova or Owowa.

Oriana might be a better version.

You don’t even need a speech impediment to have an issue with Aurora, I live an Estuary English accent area and Aurora is absolutely mangled here. For that reason alone I’d go for Violet.
