"V" Name for a Girl

Updated on July 15, 2010
V.T. asks from Fort Worth, TX
111 answers

So we're having our 3rd baby, but first girl, in December. My name starts with a V, as does my mom, grandmother, and 2 aunts on that side of the family. I would like to carry on the "V" name tradition, but my husband and I CAN NOT agree on a name. It doesn't have to be unique necessarily, but I don't want it to be so common that she'll share the name with classmates. Here are a few names we've thrown around (and even this list is not agreeable to both of us): Vaughn, Vanna, Veanna, Vale/Vail, Vaylee. I would appreciate some thoughts/feedback on these names, as well as other suggestions.

By the way, our boys names are Luke and Ben if that helps.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thanks for all the feedback, I will definitely keep it in mind. I know that the feedback here is honest because most of you don't know me so there's no worries about hurting feelings! Just to add, Vanessa is out because that is my aunt. Neither of us have been partial to Violet, and my husband does not like Victoria, Vivian, or Veronica. So that 's why none of the "traditional" V names made the list I posted. However, we have 5 months to decide so maybe I can sway him on one of the suggestions. Thanks again!!!

I really like Violet, Vanessa, Vivian, Victoria, Valerie (Val's a cute nick name and goes good with your boys names since they are one syllable) and no offense but the names you mentioned do sound unique and you said that's not what you are going for.

Vaughn reminds me of Vince Vaughn, Vanna - Vanna White, - Veanna - like the Vienna sausage, Vail like the wedding piece and Vaylee sounds too close to Kaylee and Haylee so she may often get called the wrong name.

I think the choices I mentioned for you sound more common and names she won't get picked on for having & they go more with your boys names. Good luck in your decision, I know it's not easy!

My Grandma's middle name was Verona. A friend is Veree (pronounced like Marie but with a V). Another friend is Valeria.

Sorry, Vaughn is my least favorite. Knew a boy with that name, so it will always seem like a boy's name to me, I think.

Have fun choosing!

I love the name Veronica, with its connotation of movies stars and kind of comic strip love interests. I also like Valentina and Violet. Other than that, as a high school teacher and school counselor, consider that oddly spelled names really do look funny when the child is in school and their name is being read on a piece of paper. I would chose a classic name, even if it is a traditional surname like Vaughn, but always one where the spelling is consistent with the normal pronunciation. I am actually reading a mystery right now where a character is named Venice, but it MUST be pronounced Ven-ee-chay, so she has to correct everyone...Yuck.

I really like Vaylee!! I may have to steal that one from you someday. I also like Vanna, but I'd worry about her getting teased about Vanna White.

Have you thought about Vienna? My sister had fraternal twins 9 months ago and her daughter's name is Siena. I think Vienna would be really beautiful and original.

I wouldn't go with Vaughn personally, because I know several women who have named their baby boys Vaughn recently. My name is S. (was Shannon) and I had two boys named Shannon in my class from 1st grade through 8th grade. I was quite the little girly-girl back then and I was absolutely miserable about it. I was very upset at my parent's for naming me Shannon back then, but I began to feel better about it when I changed the spelling (in 6th grade) and am now very happy with the way my first and last names go together.

I don't know if you and your husband are open to suggestions for other V names, but I'm going to share some of my favorites with you anyway. I really love the name Veronica. I'm also a fan of Vanessa and Veronique.

I know you'll choose something wonderful. Enjoy your baby girl!!

I know you've already responded and you have quite a list already, but for all the Scooby Doo fans out there, I had to include Velma (I wouldn't pick that one, but I couldn't leave it off the list). Good luck. Vanna makes me think of Vanna White, Vail of skiing and nature. I like Vaughn but find it somewhat androgynous (which was very trendy for awhile with all the Morgans, etc.)

Of the ones on your personal list, I would probably go with Vail or Vaughn, otherwise I like Veronica and Valerie (Vee and Val) which remind me of people I went to school with.

In these days and times many people make up their children's names. Have you tried going through the dictionary and examining the meanings of the words that start with V. Perhaps you will find a word that means something special to you. An example is Virtue. What about a place, Vennis.
Luke and Ben are from the Bible. Try looking there in the index of names. Go online and look for famous people whose names start with a V.

I like Violet too as well as Valentina, Valencia (kind of goes with Ben and kind of Luke too in a way..) and even know a girl named Valentine, and it's really cute. I like all of your name choices... never heard Vaylee, but it's really cute! Veanna is really pretty, but I agree with the others that it would be associated with the sausage. One of the other posters picked Vivica- LOVE IT! Good luck with whichever you choose.

Have any of the women with the V names passed away? There is a tradition among in the Jewish faith of naming a child after a deceased family member. That being said, I like Vera and Verona as well as Valencia. Good luck and Mazel Tov on your first girl!

We have a friend whose daughter is named Vivian. Although it is an old fashioned name, I love it because it is unique for these times and not an unusual, or difficult name to spell.

wow you have had a lot of suggestions!, like em all except Vangie! lol

my suggestions - viola is pretty, vail is also lovely, vaila is a town in the shetland islands off the coast if scotland, my father used to go to a violin camp there which is how I know! staying on the place name theme, I am from wales and there is a place called Vaynor there which is kind of different, there is also a Velindre which is welsh for milltown.
so if you have any kind of celtic ancestry you could think about those

answers from Chicago on

You have an insane amount of answers, but just in case you still haven't decided...Vania apparently means "brings good news" and Verena means "true" according to their Latin origins.

Vala - it has German origins and means "singled out." Not sure how I feel about the meaning, but I do like the name. Another uncommon name is Vianna, which apparently has English origins.

Good luck and congratulations! Having a girl is amazing - I have one of each and love that I get to play with rocks, dirt, and dolls!!
