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.

makes me think of Vivian Leigh. dark, stylish, exotic.

prefer the spelling Vivienne - think it is a lovely name.

Yes lovely. The Vivienne I know is classy and delightful!

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.
