Re: Georgette, Vivenne, Cordelia?
If I met a little girl named Georgette, I'd wish she was a Georgia, Georgiana, or Georgina. Georgette is completely usable, but it's definitely not my favorite feminization of George. The -ette ending sounds pretty dated to me. I'd be delighted to meet a Vivienne, and I all but swooned over the only little Cordelia to cross my path. I love both although I slightly prefer the Vivien spelling over Vivienne. I've met a few little Josephines over the past couple years, and they've all been "Josie." I think you could avoid Joey.
