Vivian's a boy name to me--Frances Hodgson Burnett named a son Vivian, as did Oscar Wilde (though he spelled it Vyvyan). For a girl, though, I like Vivienne.
I think that Vivienne Teresa or Vivienne Tess would be very nice. I really detest both Therese and Hope (one of the soppiest virtue names in existence, along with Faith and Grace), so I'm afraid I can't advocate either.
The initials VD won't be a problem. Kids don't learn about venereal diseases in health anymore; if the term comes up, it comes up in history class. If you were planning on a girl named Sylvie Tallulah Dorsett, though, or Sara Tennyson-Ives, you would have more of a problem. :)

I really love Vivian, as I just put it on my number three slot in my Top 3 Names for Girls. I like the spellings Vivian and Vivianne.
I don't care for your middle names, but Vivian Hope does flow. Hope just really isn't a name to me, and Therese is incomplete sounding to me - I'd prefer Teresa. Teresa Vivian is a nice combo.
I don't pay any heed to initials. Initials shouldn't stop you from using a name.
