V names for girls!

I love V names for girls, but strongly dislike naming babies after celebrity babies (i.e. Vivienne, Violet) and grandma names just don't appeal to me, even though some claim they're making a come back.  I'm more of a classic / modern classic gal, I guess.  Which one of these will work for my naming style in your opinion?

Which name do you prefer?

  • Veronica (26.7%)
  • Vanessa (38.3%)
  • Vienna (20%)
  • (15%)
  • Total Votes: 60

PS: not sure why there is another empty option on the bottom.  Please don't select that one. :)

Vienna seems trendy to me b/c it's a place...so I feel like it would be grouped with celebrity names?  Veronica reminds me of Archie.  I love Vanessa and think it fits all your criteria.  I also like Veda.

Oh no!  I didn't consider the sausages; only about the capital of Austria!  That's a terrible association!! :(

True!  Also, the sausage association is bad.  I guess Vienna is out. :(

My close friend named her ODD Victoria, so that's not an option.  I do love that name though and it does suit my naming style well.

I'm assuming the people who are selecting the empty bullet don't like any of the names.  If this is you, could you please comment?  Thanks :)

My friend named her DD Veronica and I really like it. At first I was sort of indifferent, but it has definitely grown on me. It helps her kid is super cute. :) I also like Vivienne/Vivian and Violet.

Also you could try Va-niece-ya, I met a lot of girls with that name spelled all different ways. Valencia is pretty too
