Middle name

[polly-purebred.livejournal.com]

I'm trying to think of a middle name to go with Violet.
So far, all I can think of is Violet Elizabeth and Violet Marie but I'm not sure I like those very much.
I also like Violet Josephine but I think it might be a bit fussy and the initials VJS could lead to a vagina joke. =) I just thought of Violet Ophelia but I think that's also a bit much.

Any ideas? My other one is Joshua Patton (age 11 months) for those of you who like to think in terms of sib sets.

Violet is a hypothetical baby, btw but my ovaries are kind of itching already. =)

I think with Violet, you need something very simple. Elizabeth and Ophelia might be a bit much.

Violet Jane
Violet June
Violet Anne
Violet Mae
Violet Kay
Violet Eve
Violet Kate

Violet Claire is my favorite combo for that name.

VJS is fine. i don't get why people get so worried about initials. as long as it doesn't spell anything horrible, like ASS or FAT or something, then i don't think it's a big deal. how many people will even know her initials?

i like violet josephine better than elizabeth and marie. two celebrity babies named violet are violet anne and violet maye.

who are the celebrity babies, i am just curious? i love the name.

ETA: oh wait, i know one of the two is the affleck baby. who is the other?

violet anne is the daughter of ben affleck and jennifer garner. violet maye is the daughter of dave grohl and his wife. they're both around 2-3 years old.

Violet Elise

I like Violet Josephine and Violet Ophelia, although, as you said, they may be a bit much.

My first ideas was Violet Ava. Not so sure about it now...Anyway, I think that simple, short names would go well and are good if you're trying to avoid flowery-ness. That said, I'm still suggesting some longer ones. ^_^
Some of these have already been said:
Violet Eve
Violet Claire
Violet Patricia
Violet Felicity
Violet Olivia
Violet Lavinia
Violet Sophia
Violet Ginevra (I don't know what the proper pronunciation is supposed to be, but I say Gi-NEV-ruh)

Hm...obviously, I like the repetition on the V sound.

Ophelia is one of my favourite names, but i'd never use it because i'd effectively be naming my child after a girl who was tormented by her boyfriend, went through hell and eventually drowned herself. Hamlet is such a wonderful play =P

I think that these...

Violet Oliva
Violet Sophia
Violet Grace (although it's over used, in this case i think it sounds lovely)

are some good ones.

Violet Josephine is my favorite. :)

Violet Eve
Violet Grace (just seconding a couple other people's on these ;p)
Violet Pearl
Violet Faye
