    My favorite from your list is Violet. It's so beautiful and the image I get from the name is fantastic...purple, lace, flowers....everything girly.

    Since you like birds, I'll list some other "birdy" type names...

    Alouette - French "lark"

    Deryn - Welsh "bird"

    Dove - English bird name

    Finch - English bird name

    Larkin - A form of Lawrence but it has lark in it.

    Merle - French "blackbird"

    Oriole - Latin "golden"

    Palila - Hawaiian "a bird"

    Paloma - Spanish "dove"

    Phoenix - Greek "dark red" - bird that rises from the ashes

    Raven - Bird name

    Robin - English "bright flame" - bird name

    Sparrow - Bird name

    Starling - Bird name

    My favorite has to be Willow because it sounds so beautiful and graceful but at the same time strong and sturdy, like the tree Weeping Willow. It's just such a great name, I absolutely love it! I also like Avis, but it kind of reminds me of the car company.... Violet is pretty, but sounds kind of shy and over used. Fae and Wren kind of remind me of an old lady. Lark and Brid doesn't sound like a girls name. Olivia and Ella are very cute and sweet names, very modern (Ella especially). Willa is okay but it's just kind of bland sounding. Koko is a cute nickname for Kiara or just in general, though i dont like it much, its a family name so it might be good to use as a middle or hyphenated name. I love Birdie as a nickname, so much, just not aa an actual name (could go with Brenda, Barbra, or Bernadette or could be a middle name). Good luck, I hope this helped :)

    Violet, Fae, Ella, Avis, and Olivia

    most of the rest are names she would probably get teased for for one reason or another. keep in mind how her classmates will react when she says her name is "Koko" or "Lark" or "Wren" or "Birdie", especially if she doesn't like birds like you do.
