I love both, but I like the way [name]Danielle[/name] sounds when it comes after [name]Claire[/name]. The emphasis is slightly different (in my voice, anyway) than when it comes after [name]Viviana[/name].

I think the reason [name]Claire[/name] [name]Viviana[/name] [name]Danielle[/name] rings better [name]IMO[/name] is that it happens to maintain the same rhythm all the way through: a stressed syllable followed by two unstressed syllables (BA da da BA da da BA: [name]CLAIRE[/name] viv-ee-AHN-na dan-YELL). It’s not something that jumps out or is glaringly apparent, but iambic, dactylic, etc rhythms are supposed to be subconsciously pleasing, like in poetry. Not to geek out or anything, haha.

[name]Claire[/name] [name]Viviana[/name] [name]Danielle[/name]! I love it. I agree with @ellenelle that there’s continuous flow with that, as opposed to [name]Claire[/name] [name]Danielle[/name] [name]Viviana[/name].

Good luck!
