Need opinions on a name

Hey there,

I am due at the end of August but am hesitant to share my names with family and friends. I did last time and my sister in law said she was going to use my name. She didn't but was due after me so I didn't use it either. Ugh!

Anyway, I have a DD who is 3 her name is Audrey Grace.

For a girl for this one I am thinking Vivian Elizabeth, nickname Vivi. Any drawbacks you can think of? I love it because it is not too popular but not too different. How do you think it sounds with Audrey?

Thanks so much for your help!

Laura

Look no further than Vivian for a gorgeous, classy name who will make a snazzy, sassy little sister to Audrey Grace. If Elizabeth is a family name, I would definitely encourage you to use it as it is. Otherwise, Vivian Elizabeth makes for a lot of syllables. What about Vivian Elise?


Great choice!

Audrey and Vivian are ABSOLUTLy the most DELICIOUS baby name pairings I have heard in a LONG time. It's like early classic 60's... Audrey Hepburn and Vivian Westwood. OOoooh. I LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM!!

Love Audrey and Vivian as sisters.

My 5 year old daughter is Audrey Anna
My sister Laura's 6 month old little girl is Alana Vivian.

Audrey and Vivian were most popular in the 1920's. For names with similar feel, look at the SSA top names in the 1920's:

Here are a few I liked.

Frances, Evelyn, Irene, Eleanor, Josephine, June, Beatrice, Clara, Charlotte, Stella, Genevieve.

I love it, especially with Audrey as a sister. Vivian Elizabeth is perfect and Vivi is cute without being too sticky sweet. I'm hard to please, but I love it!
