  Genevieve is my favorite but I find it a bit matchy with Vivienne.
  
  I would avoid another V name especially since it's not a common letter name so I wouldn't use Violet
  
  Ella is popular but classic and got my vote

  I really dislike ella, so I vote for Genevieve,  (though Geneva might be a less matchy option for you ) despite a near fairy tale quality to siblings Genevieve and Vivienne.

  I actually like Violet the best. It doesn't bother me that they both start with a V because they sound so different from each other.

  My vote is for Violet. Even though they begin with the same letter, I think they have a different feel, whereas Vivienne and Genevieve (though both lovely names) feel very similar.

  Violet. I like Genevieve but too matchy with Vivienne. Ella is just so overdone/trendy these days that I fear the name will be dated soon.

  Violet.  I like having matching first letters and I love the name anyway.  (It's my LO middle name.)

  Jacqueline if Genevieve is too flowy with Vivienne? Violent is too match and Ella doesn't age well imo. It's tough because you have such a formal name for DD1, modern name for DS, that I can't figure out the name that works in the middle.

  Thanks for all the input! Hubby just threw out Violet and is dead set on convincing me on Genevieve.  I do LOVE the name but have some hesitation that it is too similar to Vivienne.  Hubby says they are completely different and many people name their kids all with the same letter. Plus he reminds me that she will not go through life being asked what her sisters name is

  I do like nicknames we call our oldest Vivi and would call this one Genna if we went with Genevieve.

  Anything but Ella...seriously. 
  
  Genevieve is beautiful. And he makes a really good point about the sister thing.

  Ella is cute but Vivienne is so much stronger and more elegant, it would be unfair to name this baby girl Ella. Genevieve and Violet are both lovely and I don't feel either is too matchy.
