Vailet?
Another name the origins of which totally escape me is Vailet. It is a rare female name used in Finland and Sweden. Is it just a variant of Violet with an adapted spelling to facilitate the pronunciation? ("Vailet" is pronounced almost as "Violet".) When did such a name emerge?
TIA,Lass

It's funny, I was recently wondering the same thing! I'm Swedish, and I've heard the name a couple of times. Maybe Satu knows anything about it?
