Violet

The name Violet is of English origin and takes its name from both the purplish-blue hue and the flower of the same name. The violet flower symbolizes faithfulness and loyalty. When Napoleon Bonaparte was first exiled in the year 1814, he told his friends and comrades that he would return with violets in spring. Keeping this in mind, violet became the national symbol of Bonapartism, with all his followers and those with ideals aligned with Napoleon carrying violets and wearing ribbons, silks or other clothing articles in the violet hue. The name Violet tiptoed quietly to be in the Top 50 girl's names for the very first time in the year 2015. Violet Beauregarde from Roald Dahls 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' is one of the most famous fictional Violets, along with Violet Parr from Pixar's 'The Incredibles'.

Lucky

Violet lucky number is 2.

Within numerology, the 2 vibration assumes the role of the mediator, creating harmony by bringing together dissonant forces through compassion, empathy, and kindness. 2 is linked to psychic abilities and intuition, and if this number appears as a Life Path or Destiny Number, the individual will be astute to subtle energy shifts and emotional nuances. Because 2 is so sensitive, it is very conflict-averse, and can end up feeling under-appreciated or unacknowledged. 2 must avoid seeking external validation and, instead, realize that perfect equilibrium needed already exists within.
