Adrienne WinifredI also thought about Adrienne Isabeau, but figured that was too close to Adrienne Barbeau's name.

I think it's very pretty and sophisticated, so long as it's pronounced Ay-Dree-ENN and not like Adrian the male name.Adrienne SimoneAdrienne LouiseAdrienne DeniseAdrienne Estelle

It gives me a sort of aggressive vibe. Like Ava, but less bombshelly. Or I could say it's assertive and ambitious, to sound nicer ... basically the 'character' I picture is a pretty, loud-voiced gal who wears a pinstriped suit (or a sports team uniform) and she's fun and bright and capable, but very goal oriented and will step on your head to advance herself if she finds it necessary. I prefer Adria as fem form of Adrian - it gives me more of the expansive, peaceful, intelligent feeling I get from Adrian. I mean, most names that start with "AY" seem a little ... what's the word, aggressive - generally in a positive way, like an archer taking aim, full of initiative ... I just feel like Adrienne is less balanced than Adrian (m) and Adria.I find myself expecting Nicole and Renee as middle names, heh. So I guess it's getting a bit dated, too.Adrienne Sabrina

Adrienne Sabrina is lovely and pretty. Although I never even heard of it until today, I think Adria is better than both Adrienne and Adriana.

Don't love it. It's a fine enough name, but both Adrienne and Adrian for boys just aren't my style. It's fine, like I said, there's nothing objectionable about it. I just don't love it. I much prefer Adriana.
