Diva, for a girl - yes or no?

[mummiesnet]

I quite like it.

It's not a name. sounds more like an insult - don't do it.

How about Divvika? I knew a little Hindu girl called this, it sounded very pretty and I think it means "gift of light"

I think the Op is having us on - see her other thread

tearinghairout. Good trollspotting

Are you Indian? I know a little Diva and I think it's really pretty. But I don't think it would work if you weren't Indian tbh.

No not Indian Aranea.

So most people are saying no then.

I still like it a lot, would it be ok as a middle name do you think? Like Lucy Diva?

Prefer Godiva.

How about Dina, or Dinah, or Davina?

Davina is nice actually.

PMSL at LUcy DIva.

No no no.

Just no to Diva full stop.

Unless you already have a boy called Thesp. Or a girl called Sneer. IN which case go for it.

Vita?

Oh God. What is going on with people these days. Just forget the silly names and pick ones that people won't take the piss out of. Diva is a not particularly nice word not a name.

not unless you want her to grow up like one!

No, no, no.

Vita is nice Debi, what does it mean do you know?

When she's being stroppy you can tell her off for being a right little diva and she'll reply that it's your fault for calling her that and she's just living up to expectations.

It means life

my adopted baby sister was called Vita, before my mother changed it

Vita Ana Cecilia

beautiful IMO

Dita and Rita are also lovely. So is Zilla.

yes, life, like Greeny said.

Vita is a very cool name.

I like that, thanks.

Would you go for that over lucy or amelia?

It's less common than Lucy or Amelia

but they are both lovely names too

i am snaps with greensleeves tonight

awful!

It's not a name - it's description of someone who is selfish, bullying, proud, prissy and demanding.

Hardly good qualities!!!Poor girl, she will get bullied so much.

I like Vita.

Davina in fine though
