I think Ken Barlow...It would have to be male, but it's exclusively a surname for me.

never heard of it?

Me too! Worse, I think of Tracey Barlow before any other Barlows. Not good at all. Sometimes Coro makes me love names (Violet, Francesca, Bethany eg., but mostly it just gives me bad associations with otherwise OK names. :-P

Oh yes,That is true. I started liking Violet because of Coro. Before then it seemed either a) very old-ladyish or b) very literary. But then I was able to see it on a real, live person (well, character).

I think Violet might start to become more popular over here as a result of Corrie. Flower names like Rose, Poppy, Daisy and Lily are already popular and even though I think Violet is old-ladyish, the fact that a young character has it might mean parents start using it more.

Oh, thank goodness someone else knows CoroIt's a shame because it has ruined so many good names for me. e.g. Audrey, Deirdre, Charlie...But back on topic, I would have to agree with everything else you have said.
