Hi there! My daughter Vivienne Pearl was born seven months ago. I still adore her name, though at the moment it doesn’t quite suite her (it’s a quite adult name, I know) and I’m struggling with nicknames. Viv and Vivi while cute (and what we mostly call her) feel a bit too brief or incomplete.
We sometimes call her Vivi Pearl but as a true double name feels like too much. So I’m wondering, any creative nicknames you can think of? I read Vinnie as a nickname for Vivienne and it made me smile— but I wonder is it sort of ridiculous? What about Viva? Too grand? Help! Would love to know some thoughts or ideas. Thanks!
Vinnie for Vivienne seems pretty perfect to me–not ridiculous at all! I’ve also met a little Vivienne “Evie,” although I know you mentioned that might be a bit popular for your liking. For a real stretch, maybe Nina?
I think Vinny feels like a natural nickname for Vivienne!
I’d also suggest just Vienne, short sweet and streamlined. And for some reason I’ve always felt Nina should be a nickname for Vivienne, though that might be too much of a stretch.
[name_f]Viva[/name_f] works well but may not be as cutesy as you’re looking for. Ennie and [name_f]Enna[/name_f] immediately came to mind as options and I think those would be really cute. I also think [name_f]Via[/name_f] could work!
I have a [name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] who is 7 months as well!! I know what you mean, it’s such a mature name for a little baby but love it. I’m loving all these nick name suggestions. We call ours V and [name_f]Vivi[/name_f]
[name_u]Vinnie[/name_u] is great, I love it and I also like [name_f]Vivi[/name_f] Pearl. How about Vienne? Vina? I also think [name_f]Vicki[/name_f] or [name_u]Vesper[/name_u] could work as a stretch.
