Love it!
It's probably my favorite flower-based name :) it's also my favorite colour

I like it a lot. This is also my cat's name :)
I think it's a nice choice - so do lots of other people, it's been shooting up the popularity charts!
Lovely, classic, floral name. Ages well too.
I don't like it
I think Violet is a beautiful name. I love the flower, so that is what I associate it with.
Complicated.
I did actually like this name as a kid when I said it out loud... but not when it was written. Because it was one letter off of "violent." That's why I preferred Viola for many years (well, that and Shakespeare in Love). Now the "violent" association isn't so strong for me, so I prefer the English name for the flower - as a first or middle.
I have been thinking about Violana lately, though.

Pretty, gentle, and I like that it begins with V and ends with something other than a or n. On the wrong person, it can come across as droopy like a fading violet.
Very pretty. I've only met one, many years ago.
