I love Vivienne the most. It's both beautiful and strong, and Vivi ist a cute nickname.

Twinkie01 · 18/06/2021 10:26

Say them shortened. Lid, Viv, not so nice.

Ali (what we call our Alice).

Selena not sure how you'd shorten that.

OneMamaAndHerGirl · 18/06/2021 10:28

I regret everyday not calling my daughter Vivienne it’s a beautiful name

pinkmagnolias · 18/06/2021 10:47

Vivienne is beautiful. Angelina Jolie called her youngest daughter that name with the nn Vivi which I think is lovely.

Draculaswedding · 18/06/2021 10:50

Vivienne for the significance of its meaning 💐

Bin85 · 18/06/2021 10:52

Alice

BiBabbles · 18/06/2021 11:13

Leaning slightly towards Lydia, but I think Lydia, Selena, and Vivien(ne) are equally lovely.

BrownEyedGirl80 · 18/06/2021 11:15

Alice

angelaEhen · 18/06/2021 11:18

Alice

Good luck

lilsquish · 18/06/2021 11:31

None are particularly my cup of tea but from the list id go with Vivienne. But id call her ViVi with Vivienne as her 'official ' name.

Good luck with her birth, congratulations

Flamingosnbears · 18/06/2021 11:34

Viviana?...

youcanprance · 18/06/2021 13:13

[quote SleepingStandingUp]@alexdgr8 I apologised for being harsh about it when it had such an important meaning but I still think it's awful. Association I guess. The kid of the annoying woman off Dance Moms. Scowling old woman. I can also imagine a glamorous red head with long wavy hair to fit your classy but she doesn't have an accent local to me that would end Vivienne in an "in" sound.

And tbf I have three boys named names lots on here would hate so its v much personal choice[/quote]
Very unlikely DD will have red hair Grin

Lydia
Selena
Alice
Vivienne

In that order. I love Lydia it’s such a nice name. Not a fan of Vivienne at all.

Good luck OP.

ElizabethTudor · 18/06/2021 13:16

I love Vivienne nn Vivi
And I love it more with the meaning you posted

rachealgeorgia12 · 18/06/2021 13:17

Lydia!

SleepingStandingUp · 18/06/2021 17:22

but she doesn't have an accent local to me that would end Vivienne in an "in" sound. I meant "un". Viv-ee-un.

Oh @youcanprance I always wanted a red haired daughter. In sending you ginger dust ☺️ 1 blonde and 2 dark blonde boys instead.

I must regift your dust. I don't really want a ginger daughter! Would quite like her to be olive and dark hair like me but we shall see Grin

One of the first two. Say then a million times, imagine introducing them, go with what you love.

Alice and Lydia I'm not a fan of. I know so many Alices now.

BiscuitLover09876 · 18/06/2021 19:22

I love Selena but I think Viv is the one you love

Toebean · 18/06/2021 19:22

Vivienne Love
Selena Nope soubds dated
Lydia Like alot
Alice Boring

Ticketybooboo · 18/06/2021 19:24

Vivienne is gorgeous. Spelt this way and Vivi if you want a nickname.

SleepingStandingUp · 18/06/2021 20:00

@youcanprance ok il take it back and keep it for grandkids. I'm having no more babies. How long you got left?

youcanprance · 18/06/2021 20:10

@SleepingStandingUp I hopefully have 22 weeks left! Sending you lots of red blessings. My mum is the darkest you can get (although not black), and my half brother is red Shock (step dad is Irish). She's often asked if she was the Nanny or childminder

But realistically she will probably come before 32 weeks Sad As long as it isn't 24 weeks or less like DD1 and DD2

I shall quite like to not be sleeping standing up mind, whenever she does Grin hate being tired

Vivienne

Miniestelle · 18/06/2021 20:18

Vivienne. Maybe Vivienne Alice? Lovely name and reminds me of Vivienne Leigh
