Having a baby girl and looking for a beautiful name that's rooted in tradition and starts with the letter V? We've got you covered! From floral Violet to royal Victoria to frilly Valeria, our list of classic V-names has it all! So, sit back, scroll down, and decide which names are worthy of a closer look:
Part color name, part nature name.
Always a strong choice for a daughter.
A beautiful, feminine V-name that ages well.
A low-key classic that's been in steady use throughout history but never chart-toppingly popular.
This classic traces its roots to the Latin word valēre, meaning "strong".
An unpretentious, graceful classic that's ready for more use!
A great classic name is all about great provenance and timeless appeal, and Veronica qualifies on both counts.
This long, elaborate V-name has a lot going for it: the cool V-sound, literary cred via Virginia Woolf, and patriotic overtones (Virginia was the site of the first permanent English settlement in North America and became known as "the birthplace of a nation"). Downside: the potential for virgin jokes.
If you love the name Violet but can't use it for whatever reason, how about Viola?
