It reminds me of a girl I went to school with named Theodore. Her parents named her Theodore because she was the fourth girl, and they had wanted a boy. She went exclusively by Thea. Technically any name can be unisex, but no one else is going to see Vincent and think girl. Heck, when I make appointments or interviews under the name Sam (which is unisex), the first comment I always get is "Oh, I thought you were a man." One can argue this shouldn't matter, but a child would still have to deal with this constantly. Additionally, Vincent does not have any feminine-sounding nicknames, so she wouldn't have anything to fall back on should this bother her.
