If I like Vivienne..

..what else might I like? Must also go with DS's name (Cassius). DP and I really like Vivienne but not sure if it's too 'old lady'. I like classic timeless names that are slightly less popular. Thoughts please?

I think Vivienne is beautiful too, you might be surprised. I thought I would get negative comments with Ds3's name (Lawrence) but everyone was really positive, except Mum and Dad Hmm

Why can't you have Vivienne. I think it's very classy pretty and elegant and you wont get many of them in the classroom and the n.n Vivi is so cute.

Linguaphile · 03/11/2014 23:46

We have a Vivienne and I love it. She's one year old and 'Vivi' suits her perfectly. We get loads of compliments on her name as well, so I wouldn't worry too much about it being generally disliked by the public. That said, names on our girls' list were:

Georgina
Philippa (We have one of these as well)
Felicity
Helena
Claudia
Ottilie
Agnes
Annemarie
Rosalind

I was just coming on to suggest Genevieve, too!

Also Claudine, Emmeline, Edith, Lucille, Ygraine.

Vivienne is a beautiful name.
Classic
Strong
Gorgeous

Evangeline is in the same style.
But not as good as Vivienne.
