Violette, Juliette or Vivienne?

Hello everyone! We are having a daughter and we need advice on the names Violette, Juliette and Vivienne, because we cannot choose. I'm open to other name suggestions as well. I'm French but I live in London so all names should preferably be French! DD1 is called Mathilde Pénélope and DS is called Théodore Louis. Middle name suggestions would also be helpful!

Vivienne. Beautiful name.

Violette by miles. It goes much better with your other names

Vivienne in the U.K. is very Essex. Juliette is dull.

Violette!! Also I love that spelling.
I like Vivienne aswell though.

Juliette

I love Violette!!

I love Vivienne, really strong, distinguished name and goes well with your other DC’s name.

If it was up to me, I'd call her Juliette Elisabeth.

Vivienne

Apologies, but I cannot seem to get the accents on the letters to work.
Some more suggestions, although I love Juliette

Zoe
Helena
Josephine
Aimee
Rosalia (love this as it is my French grandmothers name)

I think Elisabeth is a lovely middle name

All lovely names OP. I slightly prefer Vivienne and Juliette but they are all beautiful.

OnceAnElephant · 29/07/2022 14:39

I like all the names but detest all the nicknames associated with them.

Viv
Vi

RedWingBoots · 29/07/2022 14:33

Middle names Isabelle, Florence, Charlotte...

RedWingBoots · 29/07/2022 14:29

Vivienne

It fits in with how girls are being named now e.g. name from early 20th century and is French.

Love Vivienne it’s gorgeous

hairymclarey152 · 29/07/2022 14:23

I love clemence when it's spoken in French it's such a beautiful name x
Out of those I like Vivienne because it's the nearest to Genevieve which i also love
