Girl's name Vita - what do you think?

Bret McKenzie (Flight of the Conchords) has a daughter called Vita. Mind you, he divides his time between NZ and the US, and the name might not be so remarkable in those places.

Yes, I like it too.😀

Vita Sackville-West - what's not to love?

You could have Vita and Orlando for a boy...

My friends twins are called Vita and Lena.
I think they are lovely. They mean Life and Sunlight.

SorrelSoup · 27/06/2017 07:00

Sackville-West here too.

Lovely, I know one who is Vita short for Victoria.

It sounds like the name of a margarine brand.

I really love it and wish I'd thought of it!

We have a Vito in our family ( Italian) so I like it .

NellWilsonsWhiteHair · 27/06/2017 06:07

I love it.

I've considered it a lot and personally wouldn't use it - but only because in my case it would look too obviously like homage to Vita Sackville-West, which isn't quite what I want to do. But if I wasn't someone so interested in early C20th lesbians, I don't think that would be an obvious connection.

I think it's beautiful.

Mm. No. It sounds like a vitamin supplement or something.

How about:

Vera
Vani
Nora
Nola
