But there are so many names that are so overdone these days, that you cannot turn the corner without running into doubles and even triples of them. According to the Social Security Administration, Jessica, Jennifer and Amanda were the top three most popular girl&#8217;s names of the 80&#8217;s.

But we are pretty happy that this lovely name has also &#8220;crossed the pond&#8221; and made it&#8217;s way to America! If you don&#8217;t want to go with the traditional spelling, you could always spell the name &#8220;Vyolet,&#8221; instead. Just think of all of the fun photo opportunities with the flowers that you can have!<\/p>\n<h2>Cary<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_188638\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-188638\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-188638 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/mommyish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/iStock-474374621-640x336.jpg\" alt=\"unisex names twin boy girl\" width=\"620\" height=\"326\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/mommyish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/iStock-474374621-640x336.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mommyish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/iStock-474374621-280x147.jpg 280w, https:\/\/mommyish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/iStock-474374621-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mommyish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/iStock-474374621.jpg 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 620px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 620\/326;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-188638\" src=\"https:\/\/mommyish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/iStock-474374621-640x336.jpg\" alt=\"unisex names twin boy girl\" width=\"620\" height=\"326\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mommyish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/iStock-474374621-640x336.jpg 640w, https:\/\/mommyish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/iStock-474374621-280x147.jpg 280w, https:\/\/mommyish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/iStock-474374621-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mommyish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/iStock-474374621.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-188638\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Image: iStock \/ katrinaelena)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Cary is actually an old-fashioned name that can be used for both boys and girls!
