The Name

VIOLET: Momma has loved this name for about 4 or 5 years.  Its pretty.  Its feminine.  Its not too cutesy.  Its elegant and royal.  Its not weird, but still semi unique. It starts with a "V", and I'm partial to "v's".   I LOVE IT!

ANN: Daddy came up with Ann.  He loves the name, and loves the way it sounds with Violet.  He also loves the name Grace, and even more the definition of grace.  Well, Hannah means grace, and Anna is the Anglo Saxton form of Hannah.  And that's what solidified Anna!

ELOISE: Who says you can't have two middle names!  I actually prefer to think of it as 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th.  Well Momma's given name at birth is Victoria Louise Van Wyhe.  Daddy didn't know what he thought about using Van Wyhe as a middle name,(he's not against my family, he just thinks it sounds weird). Victoria would be confusing to have as another first, and didn't sound good as a middle, and so Louise seemed to be the "go to" portion of the name that would be familial.  Well, Eloise is a form of Louise, and we liked the sound of it better with Violet Ann.  So, Violet Ann Eloise it was!
