I like the flower and the color, but I don't understand the attraction to Violet as a name. Whenever I hear it I always think of the obnoxious character Violet in Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. I have two different friends with daughters named Violet--one as fn and one as mn. It probably doesn't help that their combos are less than pleasing to my ear: Violet Elena and Isabelle Violet.
