    Default What do you think of the name Viva?

    I've been thinking about a name change because I've met too many Meea's already, and someplaces make me pick a different name all together because they don't alow duplicates (just like in real life )

    So I was listening to ZZ Top and the song Viva Las Vegas and I thought what a cool name that would be... However, I don't want people turning to their friends after I've left and say WTF!

    Do you think Viva is over the top corny and cheesy or unique and cute?


    P.S. Sorry about yet another name thread.. Maybe we should have a whole section for it? LOL

    Makes me think of "vulva". That could be a good thing. Eh, I always wanted to go by Circe so what do I know.

    I don't like it-it makes me think of the song "Viva Las Vegas" or the paper towels. I'd pick something that sounds more like a real name.

    Seriously it does remind me too of Vegas. If you pick a name that starts with a V, why not go with a strong name like Victoria, or Vixen ect.
    Just my opinion. I don't care for Viva though.

    LOL! Viva sounds like a no no to me. Try vivian, or even Vina.

    One of the chicks in Andy Warhol's movies used the name Viva.

    These are my associations with Viva (depends on the pronunciation of course)...

    a) Las Vegas or...
    b) the oral examination of a PhD student.

    *hint* neither of these have connotations of sexiness, if you haven't guessed so already.

    I am in the paper towel crowd. Would you show us your Bounty? You know bounty is the quicker picker-upper? LOL

    Maybe something that rhymes with it.

    As my Italian friends would say, "Forget about it!" It sounds really, really fake. If you want to sound exotic, try Vivienne.

    Not that it needs saying, I guess *looks at the above* but I'm not a huge fan of it either...Vivian is good, though.

    i agree. Vivian is nice, and actually a real name. "Viva" is corny.

    Viva is my aunt's name, lol! But just the same, I'd go with something else.

    I like it because it reminds me of the spanish meaning. BUT, I also see the other's points. How about just Viv? That used to be an internet handle of mine that I really liked........

    I like Viv, Vivian, or Vixen. I think that they are not names used much.
