I think Ava and Vivienne are great together...but Zoe seems very out of place. I think Ava and Zoe could go together if there was another three letter name with it.Here's more my style:Ava Elizabeth, Vivienne Ivy, & Isabella EvelynORAva, Mya, & Zoe
Ava, Ivy, & Eve has always been a guilty pleasure of mine. :P

Those are pretty. Is it 3 girls for sure? With Ava and Zoe, name from the middle of the alphabet with 3 letters would be cute, like Mia. There were just triplets born at the hospital where I work, 2 boys and a girl--Benjamin, Joshua, and Emma. Too common for my taste, but they sound good together.

I think Ava and Zoe go really well, but Vivienne doesn't work with the others.

I like Ava and Zoe, but I don't think Vivienne (I would spell it Vivan to shorten it) really fits with the other two. ~EvaCollette

The only one I don't like is Ava.My suggestion is Zoe, Geneva, and Olivie/Olivia; "Zoe, Neve, and Liv"WDYT of that?

They're nice enough I suppose, althouhg I'm not crazy about the over use of Ava, so I'd suggest Eva or Evelyn or something, and the Vivien spelling instead of Vivienne to look more visually pleasing with the other two.

LOL They all mean "life"That's cute, because most people wouldn't get it, and thus it wouldn't seem "triplety" and cutesy! And Vivienne does stick out but I like all of them and think it's a great suggestion; Vivienne is one of my favorite girls' names.

I always thought Ava meant 'bird':)

If it's from Avis, it means "bird". If it's a form of Eva, it means "life".a

All lovely names, but Vivienne really, really sticks out. Mostly because of its length, but also because it's more unusual than the trendy Ava and Zoë.I don't like A-Z initials for sibs in general, especially multiples. It seems cutesy, albeit in a more subtle way than, say, Molly and Holly.Miranda

Zoe is one of my favorites....opinionZoe (of course with the accent, which my comp. refuses to acknowledge) is one of my faves, and I just happen to like with mns such as Alexandra, Alessandra, Angelica, Arianne. Do you think that is too corny to use? I also like Zoe Elisabeth
Zoe Isabel

On a flow basis, Zoë Alessandra and Zoë Angelica both sound great, though I think the flow of the latter's a bit better. But The Z-A thing does bother me a bit. Not nearly as much as sibs named Z and A, but still it's there. On the other hand, the mn isn't used all that often in RL, so I would say go for it if you really loved it. It's just not something I'd choose to do.Zoë Elisabeth sounds better than Zoë Isabel imo. Elizabeth is a very popular, rather standard filler mn however, and although Elisabeth is a little fresher visually, it still sounds the same as Elizabeth. But again, you don't mind the fact that Elisabeth's a filler--if you really love the sound of the combo, or are using Elisabeth to honour someone--then I say OK.Miranda

Love Ava and Zoe spelt Zoey but Vivienne doesn't fit.
Congrats to your friend
