I like [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], personally. My second choice was [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Nova[/name_f] but the N’s are too close for my liking and it seems more V heavy than [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Maeve[/name_f].

[name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Danae[/name_f] has the best flow, I think.
[name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Maeva[/name_f] would be good too.

It sounds like flow and middle-name significance are important to you–but if you have to choose, which would you prioritize?

[name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] is actually my pick (I personally like the flow, too), and among the other names [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Danae[/name_f] flows the best. The “v” in [name_f]Nova[/name_f] actually is more noticeable for me, and I agree that [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] is too much.

Thanks guys, I agree, Vivian Nova is too N heavy, I just really like Nova as a middle name, I guess! Vivian Danae does seem to flow the best. Unfortunately Danae doesn’t really have any strong meaning to us, we just think it sounds pretty!

We’re having a hard time with the significance vs. flow issue. Ideally we’d like a name with nice flow and has significance, I don’t think we’d be happy with either/or. At the end of the day, we’d probably prioritize significance a bit more; the same thing happened to us with boys names too - we really love Leo Rowan, but Rowan has no personal significance at all, so we’re not keeping it on the list, I think. It’s hard to strike the right balance!

I think [name_u]Vivian[/name_u] [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] has a lovely flow! [name_f]Susannah[/name_f] is also by far my favourite of your middle name choices. [name_f]Nova[/name_f] is very funky but I agree about too many n’s and v’s. [name_f]Persephone[/name_f] is too much for me, and [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] and [name_f]Danae[/name_f] I’m not keen on I’m afraid!
