I think [name]Guinevere[/name] is the most evocative and interesting and powerful. [name]Genevieve[/name] is fabulous too, but I dislike how it flows with [name]Elaine[/name]. [name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Elaine[/name] might have the best flow, but it’s the least substantial imo.
I vote [name]Genevieve[/name]. [name]Roxanne[/name] and [name]Genevieve[/name] sound great together. I think [name]Genevieve[/name] sounds great with [name]Elaine[/name] and your last name. [name]Guinevere[/name] is a great name but I find the ending rhymey with your last name. I also love [name]Vivienne[/name] but the matching ending with both [name]Elaine[/name] and [name]Roxanne[/name] gives me pause. I also think [name]Vivienne[/name] is a tad less spunky than [name]Roxanne[/name]. All solid names though. Good luck!
I love the nn [name]Vivi[/name] so that swayed me.
[name]Love[/name], love, love [name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Elaine[/name]. I’ve been loving [name]Genevieve[/name] lately, though. 
Good luck!
I voted for [name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Elaine[/name]. I think [name]Genevieve[/name] is lovely - rarely used but not unheard-of, sweetly feminine but spunky.
Normally I would say [name]Guinevere[/name], but I like [name]Vivienne[/name] with [name]Elaine[/name].
[name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Elaine[/name] sounds great with [name]Roxanne[/name].
Thanks for the comments. I really like all three, so I go back and forth. [name]Genevieve[/name] seems to be winning for now. We’ll probably decided at the hospital when we see her, but until last weekend I was panicking because we didn;t even have a short list to take to the hospital.
I do like the nickname viv or vivi, but I think those could be used with [name]Genevieve[/name] too…
Although I prefer [name]Guinevere[/name] and [name]Genevieve[/name] to [name]Vivienne[/name], I voted for [name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Elaine[/name] as I think that that is the one that flows the best. Good luck!
[name]Guinevere[/name] [name]Elaine[/name] is stunning! I love it with your daughter’s name too. [name]Genevieve[/name] would be my second choice- beautiful name that goes perfectly with [name]Roxanne[/name]. [name]Vivienne[/name] lacks the sparkle that the other two have for me. Good luck
I find [name]Guinevere[/name] and [name]Genevieve[/name] a little hard to say alongside the middle name [name]Elaine[/name] as they kinda smush together.
[name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Elaine[/name] is gorgeous though and I love the sound of [name]Vivienne[/name] Saddler.
I love [name]Guinevere[/name] [name]Elaine[/name]! Very Arthurian romance! ([name]Guinevere[/name] was [name]King[/name] [name]Arthur[/name]'s queen, and [name]Elaine[/name] was The Lady of Shalott.)
Funny, I hadn’t looked at this for awhile, we were just thinking on the names, and we are leaning [name]Vivienne[/name] at this point, and looks like that’s what the poll results are. Less than a week- induction is tuesday if she doesn’t show before then!
Not intentional, but I was wondering if people would catch that!
@ ottillie- Not intentional, but I was wondering if people would catch that!
I generally prefer the name [name]Vivienne[/name] to [name]Guinevere[/name] & [name]Genevieve[/name], but I find it a bit hard to pronounce with [name]Elaine[/name] as a middle. However, it depends on how you’re pronouncing it. If you’re using the French pronunciation, it’s difficult. If you’re pronouncing it similarly to [name]Vivian[/name], then I think it sounds quite lovely.
[name]Guinevere[/name] is my favourite of the first names with [name]Elaine[/name] it’s a bit too much Camelot for me (I’m a bit weird in that despite how much I love certain books/periods of history/etc., I find having a first and middle name from the same book/period/etc. too much). I voted [name]Genevieve[/name] because it’s more distinct from [name]Roxanne[/name] (the “enne” and “anne” sounds aren’t too close but not that distinct either).
I like:
[name]Guinevere[/name] [name]Elaine[/name] best
[name]Genevieve[/name] [name]Elaine[/name] a lot as well.
Never been fond of [name]Vivienne[/name], at all.
I adore [name]Guinevere[/name] [name]Elaine[/name]- it’s so soft and romantic, and similar to [name]Roxanne[/name] Rosemunde. [name]Vivienne[/name] [name]Elaine[/name] may have better flow, but it doesn’t have the substance that [name]Guinevere[/name] has. [name]Genevieve[/name]- though I love it- doesn’t feeel right with [name]Elaine[/name].
