Would it be too much to name your daughers Scarlett and Violet?

I'd likely avoid it. While I love both names, they share not only the colorful link but also the similar "et" ending sounds, so coming across as a bit overly matchy. At least something like Charlotte and Violet would avoid the color connection, or Ruby and Violet the similar sound, if you follow. Or even Scarlett and Viola, to avoid both the literal "word" association AND "et" endings! ;) Just a thought.

Way over the top....don't do it
Reply:I love the name Scarlett....Scarlett O'Hara from Gone with the Wind......very southern sounding and another name I love is Shelby.....very old south....good luck
Reply:I like it. The trick is just to pick a name that no one can make fun of.



ex. My boyfriend's [first] name was almost Barrett...until his mother suggested it to someone, who laughed and said

"Grin and Barrett! Drop your pants and Barrett!"



Scarlett and Violet are normal names, [not made up], but are not common.



I like them! :)

Reply:no they are lovely names
Reply:Well do you think that's a good name for your child. I mean it's your pick.
Reply:Lovely names..even for twins.

This would let each twin be different while being part of the set.

I say, "Go for it!"
Reply:yehh its your choice! i like both names they are very pretty. its not like you are asking if apple and peach is too full on. yes then it would be! haha. but Scarlett and Violet is nice, GO FOR IT!
Reply:No, I reckon they are lovely names!
Reply:I think it is, unfortunately. You're steering down a scary path towards theme names, which is a generally tacky and scary place.



Instead of Scarlett, you could use Charlotte, so you could have Charlotte and Violet, which are still great names, but not so matchy. If Scarlett's your absolute favorite, how about Viola instead of Violet? Again, Scarlett and Viola still sound nice together without being silly and matching.



Hope this helps!
Reply:I think they are both pretty names (I esp. like Scarlett). Go for it! Are they twins?
Reply:I don't think it would be too much. They aren't very "severe" sounding names. To me they remind me of sweet little southern bells :) Go for it! It's your choice anyway, don't let someone steer you away from what you like!
Reply:They are pretty names. If you like them that's all that matters. I personally prefer scarlett over violet though.
Reply:I think they're lovely names, but I don't think it suits twins, if that's why you're asking.
Reply:I would say that would be inadvisable. You have to think about how they will feel about it when they get older.
Reply:Never, they are beautiful names. As a mommy you reserve the right for names anyway... but if you need a confidence boost... i thinkthey are lovely... and they will look beautiful written. :) I think that she will be proud of the name as she grows.
