[Opinions] Violet but...
in reply to a message by Puck
I love them both and part of why I wouldn't choose Eloise is if my sister ever has a daughter she wants to name her either Elliot or Eloise nn Ellie and Elle.
I also chose Violet because it is more laid back than Eloise. Violet is retro, soft but spunky, and it is a flower child name ;) - which I love since I'm a bit of a neo hippie.
I also love Violeta / Violetta, Viola, Eloisa, and Louisa. Those are all really great names.
I'd say Violeta is probably my favorite over Violet but it is a tough one. I like that Violetta has one more nn which is Etta. You could call a Violet by Etta but it is a less organic transition.
Vi, V, Vio, Lettie, Ettie, and Etta are all great nn. You could even get away with Lottie as a nn.
