Baby Names

middle name for Vivienne..

We haven't really talked about baby names yet, but I'm in love with this name. (still a little unsure of how I would spell it Vivienne or Vivian) I just want to know which of these 3 middle names you like and if none, what middle name would you suggest?

Louise

Grace

Claire

something else...?

  • Since the emphasis on Vivienne is on the last syllable, you need something longer than one syllable, with the emphasis on the second or later syllable for the middle name. The only one on your list that fits this criteria is Louise.

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Louise goes as a great middle name for just about anything.

    Well, Louise is also my middle name & it was my grandmothers name. So I really like the sound and think the nick name Vivi Lou is so cute.

    The SO doesnt care for Louise very much but we'll see how it goes.

    A friend's DD is named Vivian Kate.

  • My niece is Vivienne Claire, so that would be my choice, but I also like Vivienne Louise.

  • I think the spelling Vivian is better, and I really love both Vivian Grace and Vivian Claire.

  • You do know Vivian and Vivienne are two different names, right?  It's not just a spelling.  The name you actually choose would sway my middle name recommendation.

    DD is Vivian Jenae.  Jenae is my mom's name.  Your options are fine (with the exception of Grace which is so overused it makes me roll my eyes a little) but are there any names that would have some meaning to you or your DH?  I think the best middle names are one that honor a loved one.

  • I agree with Louise.

    My neice's name is Vivian Elizabeth and I LOVE it! They debated Vivian Rose, also. Just a thought. :)

  • My DD is Vivian Claire. She was almost Vivian Kate instead, but Claire is my middle name so we decided to use that.

     I pronounce Vivian and Vivienne differently, as well.

    Vivian = VIV-ee-an

    Vivienne = viv-ee-ENN

    I don't really like any of the three you've chosen, however, I like Vivienne Clair best. I prefer Vivienne Elizabeth.
