[Opinions] Re: Violet
Violet's already pretty popular in some places. I live in So Cal, and I know of 3 girls under the age of 6 named Violet. Seems to be one of those trendy names for people looking for something completely non-trendy and old fashioned in the line of Camille and Audrey.
With Jennifer Garners child & the movie Ultraviolet (character named Violet), I expect Violet to become quite popular (it's already 590 on the SS chart for 2004), Having met little girls named Violet, I really truly hate the name. Mainly because they all end up with the nickname Vi, and it just is such a proper and demure name on a modern child. It seems a bit unfair if the girl is a bit of tomboy or isn't quite so prim and proper when she grows up. Dunno why the name drives me crazy, maybe because the families who tend to use it have extremely snoddy kids.
