[Opinions] Rivanna
What are your opinions on the name Rivanna? Rivanna is pronounced "Rih-VAN-nuh". This is my grandmother's name, named after her grandmother. My grandmother is almost 85 years old. Her middle name is Missouri, as was her grandmother's middle name. I don't live there, and she never did either. I don't believe we ever had family there, ever. It is cool to have as a middle name, though. I'm guessing her grandmother was named after the Rivanna river in Charlottesville, Virginia. Who knows? If my brother used Vivian after my deceased grandmother, I could use Rivanna Vivian, or maybe a variant. Maybe Savannah Vivian? It sounds exactly like Rivanna, though not as charming in my humble opinion. I could also use Rivanna as a middle name, too, maybe. My grandmother is very nice and fun to be around. One of those Southern Women with a lot of spitfire, she loves to tell stories about the past. Both my grandmothers were like that, lol. My grandmother loves her name and she thinks it's really pretty. She always receives compliments on her name."You're a firework. Show your obstacles your brightest colors."-MeRate my name lists too!
