My 6-year-old is in love with the name [name_f]Violet[/name_f]. He’s called our soon-to-arrive baby girl that name for months, it’s adorable. I do really like the name but it’s soooo popular and I feel like it’s rising in popularity every year.
I actually suggested [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] and he was not a fan. Not that I have to please him necessarily, he’ll get used to anything we choose. But any suggestions for something similar?
Oddly enough, I was in that same situation. My older kids only liked [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Lily[/name_f]. And they were very popular in our friend group. My kids didn’t like what we actually did chose initially, but now they do. Also we let them choose her middle and they loved that. Anyway… some suggestions. (Though [name_f]Ivy[/name_f] was my first thought too).
