Not Victoria because it's the middle name of her eldest

See?

Vera
Violet
Veronica
Verity

Vivienne lovely, very retro, Vivi great nn.

Vanessa also beautiful if you look at it afresh!- I reckon this one will make a comeback.

Verity lovely.

Venetia is gorgeous. I like Valeria too.

MammieBear · 27/08/2017 16:14

I would say Vienna, Venitia, Voila, Violetta, Viviana, Vivienne.

MammieBear · 27/08/2017 16:15

Oh and Vesper, look it up great meaning.

Vember is interesting... But might not work during that phase where you continually have to shout 'No' followed by their name. Grin

RickOShay · 27/08/2017 18:33

Vashti

LonginesPrime · 27/08/2017 18:36

Vanellope!

My bestest friend in infant school was called Veryan after the village in Cornwall. A very cool name, long before 'made up' names were common. She'd be 50 now... I might google her. Blush

MavisFlumpTheFairy · 27/08/2017 18:41

Vanda
I love Verity
Valkyrie 😳😃

Vivienne?

Yep you're right, V is shit.

Crunchymum · 27/08/2017 19:21

Why can't she use Victoria? We're considering our DD middle name as a first name for second DD.

ShinyTamatoa · 27/08/2017 19:22

I know a little girl who is Veryan.

bridgetreilly · 27/08/2017 19:22

Well, imo, there are plenty of pretty names beginning with a V. But, OP, sounds like you've already decided there aren't. Maybe show some of these to your friend anyway, just in case she has different taste to you:

Vera
Violet
Verity
Vivienne
Viola
Vanessa
Vita
Violetta
Venetia
Virginia

I knew (of) a Veryan many years ago - the sister of a friend. They were Cornish. She'd be about 45 or so now I think. I had it on the short list for my DD2 - she is another Cornish name.

MrsSchadenfreude · 29/08/2017 22:11

Vinka (Croatian) or Vinca
Vesna (Czech)
Varya (Russian)
Viera (Slovak)
Valentina (Romanian) - Vali for short
Vanda (Eastern European)

You need to cast your net more widely!
