The strings on a violin are named after the note that sounds when the string is played "open" or without any fingers pressed onto the string. The normal strings (tuned in 5ths) are tuned from the top down as follows E, A, D, G. On a five and six and seve stringed violin (which is rare unless the instrument is an amplified electric violin) would continue down that circle of fifths: E, A, D, G, C, F, and B Flat. (the A is usually tuned to the 440 hz A, but is sometimes tuned lower for baroque music or higher for more modern pieces, but never lower than 436 or higher than 444.)
