They are all great! I can see how it’s a tough call! [name]One[/name] thing to think about is if you feel extra sad ruling out any of them for a future daughter. I mean, you could always disagree, but I think using either [name]Phoebe[/name] or [name]Fiona[/name] rules out the other, at least as a first name. Similarly, [name]Daphne[/name] and [name]Phoebe[/name] are maybe too matchy at the end, although that’s less key. And [name]Daphne[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] sounds sort of like a bouquet, although that’s not entirely negative really, it’s cute in its way and not over the top.
Good luck!
1 [name]Daphne[/name]
2 [name]Violet[/name]
3 [name]Phoebe[/name]
4 [name]Fiona[/name]
I think the first thing you should do is choose between [name]Daphne[/name] and [name]Phoebe[/name] because they’re too matchy for siblings. Then you’ll have three names to work with. [name]Daphne[/name] is gorgeous with [name]Violet[/name] and [name]Fiona[/name]. [name]Phoebe[/name] and [name]Fiona[/name] have similar sounds so they rule each other out.
The sibsets end up looking like this…
[name]Daphne[/name], [name]Violet[/name] and [name]Fiona[/name]
[name]Phoebe[/name] and [name]Violet[/name]
It was difficult to choose, because all of them are really pretty.
At last, I vote for [name]Fiona[/name] and [name]Daphne[/name]. I love [name]Violetta[/name] more than [name]Violet[/name], and love those three more than [name]Phoebe[/name].
Oh you girls are so great! Awesome advice. I only wish I would have clarified that this is THE LAST CHILD! Haha! I never even thought that you guys would look at sibsets with these 4 choices (I should have). My other children are [name]Owen[/name], [name]Sullivan[/name] and [name]Annabel[/name] ([name]Sully[/name] and [name]Annie[/name]). However, I don’t REALLY care or mind if this last baby doesn’t “GO” with the other names. I am considering more what sounds prettiest/most feminine and also teasing is worrying me:( [name]Fiona[/name] and [name]Daphne[/name] have been my LOVES for a long time, and yes, I do frequently ask myself if I would really regret not using one. I [name]DO[/name] worry about teasing with [name]Fiona[/name] and Ogre/Shrek. My DD will be tall (DH and I both are). Is that setting her up? [name]Daphne[/name] I do not see as quite as much teasing, but there is always scooby doo and daffy duck and the daft comments (although noone ever uses that term these days). I do love and adore [name]Phoebe[/name] and [name]Violet[/name], they are always in my mind as well, and I am sure I would not regret using them.
Bump?:). Any more thoughts?
I voted [name]Fiona[/name] and [name]Violet[/name], but they are all nice. I really love [name]Fiona[/name], and my first thought is always the awesome chick from [name]Burn[/name] Notice, which is a good association, and my second thought is of course Shrek. I don’t know, does that ruin it? Probably not…at least now all the Shrrek movies have come out, so maybe they will wane and the new crop of kids won’t have such a strong assoc of [name]Fiona[/name] and the movies. I actually think it has the potential to make the name more appealing and fun for the girl who bears it, but of course as the parent you worry, what if she hates the association? If you love it, I think you should do it. It’s a gorgeous name. [name]Violet[/name] seems safer. I do like [name]Daphne[/name] a lot too, maybe as much as [name]Violet[/name]. [name]Phoebe[/name] is my least fav, but I do see the appeal and think its cute on a little girl!
I like [name]Daphne[/name] best, followed by [name]Fiona[/name]. I feel [name]Phoebe[/name] and [name]Violet[/name] are played out.
I love [name]Violet[/name], personally. 
I quite like [name]Daphne[/name] and [name]Phoebe[/name], as well, but [name]Violet[/name] is by far my favorite!
