History & Origin

Vayolet respells Violet, from Latin viola — first the flower, then the colour, then the name. Writing English names phonetically is a long-running habit in Latin-American families, and Vayolet is a clear example. The base meaning stays with Violet (said 'VY-oh-let').

It is newly emerging and very rare for girls in the U.S. Flower-name, respelled, and pretty.

Did you know? Violet takes its name from the Latin viola, a small spring flower whose colour we still call violet. Vayolet writes that name by ear in a Spanish-influenced spelling (said 'VY-oh-let').
