I think you should go with the name you love. [name_f]Vianna[/name_f] is not my style, but I think it sounds fine with [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u]! I like the shared V sound.

[name_f]Vianna[/name_f] works well with [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u]!
It might not be common, but it reminds me of other popular names like [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] and [name_f]Anna[/name_f]. That way it sounds like a sister to [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u], even if it’s more unique.

I’d never heard this name before but I think it’s lovely! I think what people are saying is they are familiar with [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u], [name_f]Vianna[/name_f] not so much. If you wanted something more common maybe you could go with [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] or [name_f]Viviana[/name_f]. You may get the odd person spell or pronounce [name_f]Vianna[/name_f] incorrectly but that can happen with any name. If you love it use it!

So while I’m not a wild fan of the name [name_f]Vianna[/name_f] itself, I think what’s more important is that you pick a name you love. Siblings don’t have to have matching names, my name is Ceilidh ([name_u]Kay[/name_u]-lee), while my sister’s name is the much more straightforward [name_f]Hannah[/name_f]. [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u] and [name_f]Vianna[/name_f] don’t clash, and you like the name, so who really cares what the popularity of the names are?
