I love it! It has all those glamorous, mysterious 40s film star qualities for me. I wouldn't use it because surname begins with N Sad but I want other people to!

What kind of girl comes to mind?

Confident, mischievous, a ringleader in her set, a go-getter, knows her own mind.

Love the name.
I imagime someone quite vivacious and kind, well brought up but with a fun streak!

Pudgy2011 · 03/10/2012 16:46

Love it - timeless and elegant!

I'm not mad about it. For some reason it makes me think of someone with short frizzy hair. I have no idea why. Confused

I know a Vivienne. It is gorgeous. Doesn't Angelina have a Vivienne?

Love it. The one I know is very polite, kind and pretty. And her mother is lovely, one of my favourite Rainbow parents.

It is very elegant and quite timeless.

I think of Vivian Leigh.

I LOVE Vivienne... I desperately wanted to use it for DD but I had a senior manager with the name at the time and was told it would seem 'try hard'... I am at a new firm now and bitterly regret not using it! It is so beautiful and timeless, a real classic.

BoyMeetsWorld · 03/10/2012 17:15

I know a very pretty, petite & classy Vivienne too

Viviennemary · 03/10/2012 17:19

I'm a glamorous mysterious 40's filmstar. I love it! I'm surprised it's not used a bit more.

Nahla321 · 03/10/2012 17:53

Awww I love it! What kind of girl comes to mind? First image in my mind would be a very unique girl with an amazing character (probably comes from the love of Vivienne Westwood) Smile

AuntieMaggie · 03/10/2012 19:38

Love it but what would it be shortened to?

LoveYouForeverMyBaby · 03/10/2012 21:58

Love the name and prefer the Vivian spelling of it. Nn could be Viv, Vivvy, Vy, Ve Ve.
