VIOLET.

The origin Of the fragrant and poetic
name of Violet is shrouded in mystery.
The name of Niolante appeared in the
south Of France and north of Spain and
Italy early in history, but there was
no clew To its origin, and apparently
like Topsy, it Just grew Etymolo-
gsts with a fanciful turn Of mind have
Identified it with the lovely golden
violet which was the prize of trouba-
dours OF old in the courts of love: other
authorities believe that 1t may have
been a form of some old Latin name
such as Nalcntius, The Latin name
for the little purple flower that lifts
Its modest head in the spring is
viola
Niolante was popular as feminine
name in Spain, but France changed
her to Nolande or YOettc, An old
English form was Joetta. Scotland,
however. reached out and appropriated
the name. changing it TO Violet II is
thought that this latest version came
through connection of the archers
Of the ROYAL guard or perhaps through
Queen Mary's friend. Violet Forbes.
Certainly the name spread in popular
ity in England and Scotland where
Niolets were almost as numerous as
the Marys of the Catholic communities
Of today
Perhaps the most famous Violet Of
history was Ia Nioletta, the young
dancer. so called by Maria Theresa,
who became the wife OF David Garrick,
the brilliant English tragedian. Viola
