I love both names but I prefer [name_f]Violet[/name_f]. I worry that [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] may be confused for [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] and be misspelled or mispronounced. Both names are lovely though-I like the botanical theme!

I prefer [name_f]Violet[/name_f]. I love the look of [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] but I’m not quite as keen on the sound. [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] is lovely!

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Cicely[/name_f], but I think some might find it hard to pronounce or say. I think [name_f]Violet[/name_f] is a great name

Violet - I like Violet Mary and Violet Alice so much, personally! My sister is named Violet Olivia, and I love that too.

[name_f]Violet[/name_f] by a large margin. Hard to decide between [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Ariana[/name_f] and [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Cicely[/name_f], both are stunners.

I prefer [name_f]Violet[/name_f], and [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f]. I like the sound of [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] but this is not my preferred spelling. [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] sounds lovely, though.

I prefer [name_f]Violet[/name_f], but I do like [name_f]Cicely[/name_f], and I love how ‘old’ and unusual it is.

I adore sweet, sassy [name_f]Cicely[/name_f]! [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] is lovely (and I’d love [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] even more).

I think I slightly prefer [name_f]Violet[/name_f] to [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] (although I love both) but I prefer the combos for [name_f]Cicely[/name_f]!

I think [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] [name_f]Alice[/name_f] is lovely but the ‘c’/‘s’ sound is a little repetitive and similarly, [name_f]Cicely[/name_f] [name_f]Mary[/name_f] is lovely as well but the repeating ‘y’ ending throws off the flow a little.

Some other ideas:
