I have run into at least 3 at baby classes with my toddler just since this summer alone. It also seems like people are constantly asking about using this name on dcum.

One Vivian from preschool, she's 9 now.

One Vivienne from ES, now 8.

Both in DC.

About 6, but they're all different ages. Oldest one I know is 7th grade, then about one per year down to about kindergarten. (That's about as young as the kids I know go these days.) It is a mix of the two spellings.

Too many. It's an ugly name, and I say that having a relative who I adore named that.

There are currently four in my local elementary school that I know of.

I do think there is a micro trend of Vi- names for girls.

Violet, Victoria, Vivian, Vivienne, etc. Not as pronounced as the trend of El- or even Li- names for girls, but still a thing that's happening.

I doubt someone knows 10 Vivian/Viviennes, but I do think these things can have micro-trends and someone might know a weird number of kids with a name that doesn't seem that popular on the "top" lists.

However, there were 10 Vivians born in DC in all of 2020 and it wasn't in the top 100 in Maryland or VA. So yeah, unlikely that PP actually knows 10 kids with this name unless she has some specific job or role where she works with tens of thousands of young kids every year or something.

I’ve known 3. All Asian-American. It might be more popular in some communities than others.
