HelpRe: Vivian/Vivienne
in reply to a message by Billina
Vivien.
If I have to choose between Vivian and Vivienne, then Vivian. Vivienne seems to have extra letters. It looks like it's vivi-EN, and feels almost like a different name. I feel that way about Adrienne too (although I prefer Adrienne for girls, not Adrien or Adrian because those seem masculine to me).
I think Vivian is unisex. It's neither feminine nor masculine to me, or it's both. The e in Vivien seems to be telling me that it's a feminine name, like Vivienne, only it's not so elaborated.
