Baby Name Poll Results

I would be delighted to meet a little Viola.

I love Viola and Lila.

I like Violet. I play the viola, so I wouldn't use it for a baby name.

Viola is ugly.

Thank you to everyone who has voted and commented!! It is much appreciated.

Violet Lila

Violet Mary

I honestly like all three a lot. They're beautiful names. Viola Mary got my vote but this was a hard one.

^ Thank you so much, Lilac Lady. You're too kind!

And thanks again to everyone voting and commenting. I'm still watching this space 🩷

I really do like Lila best. (I like Lilah more but I understand if you prefer the Lila spelling.) I think Viola sounds better with Mary than Violet, and it is also a flower. But perhaps consider that some will read it as the instrument (vee-o-la) rather than vie-o-la. Not a dealbreaker, just something to consider. And Violet Mary doesn't sound bad, just not quite as good as Viola Mary or Lila Mary. Which sounds best with your surname? The full name combo isn't said aloud all that often, so I'd put more emphasis on the flow of first-last name. And above that, which first name alone do you love saying aloud? Because you'll be doing that 100x a day for years on end, so make sure you love it!

^ What a thoughtful comment, Guest. Thank you for taking the time to write what you did. I'm definitely digesting it.
