Thanks. But is there any coincidence with Bibiana, a name pure Catholic and not proper in Denmark?

Hi Edma,

Bibbe would be a possible nick name for a girl named Bibiana in Denmark - but Bibiana is really rare in Denmark (at the moment there are only 8 women/girls with that name living in Denmark).

It would be interesting to know if any version of Vivien is used in Denmark. But if it is, then presumably it's not this one!

Hi Anneza,

In Denmark, the version Vivian is used (currently about 1.781 women/girls). Even more popular is the short form Vivi (4.769) - but it's not only a short form of Vivian but also of Vibeke, which is really popular in Denmark (12.638).

Interesting! Thank you.

It's almost certainly just a coincidence that both names start with "bib" - they're not related. :-)
