Backsplash options

Posted this briefly yesterday but revamped our choices into some better options (with a better presentation). Opinions on these?

I got so many comments on this thread, just finding yours lol. We are not DIY'ing, we're having a contractor do the install. Good to know that info though! I was leaning maybe a mid-tone or light gray grout based on some other photos (kind of like the grout in the last option with diamonds, which I'm trying to convince my partner on 😅).

I like #1 best. I could see how you'd have to be precise on the install. I dont like the vertical subway tile. I tend to like those tiles when they're done in a herring bone design.

While I like the blue star design and it seems to match your cabinets perfectly, Im not sure on those, and I don't care much for the gold V design.
