My English name is Lizzy, nickname of Elizabeth in the novel of Pride and Prejudice. I like Grace very much, it sounds elegant. However, lot of people named themselves Grace.

English names are not like Chinese names: most of them don't have a clear meaning.  (Well, if you go far enough into their history - like, several thousand years of history - you can find the meanings.  But there aren't usually obvious meanings like there would be with a Chinese name like 爱华.)  For example, Dawn has an obvious meaning (sunrise), but Sarah does not (it comes from the Bible) and nor does Elizabeth (I have no idea where it comes from or what it means).

I think Vivian is a nice name, but it is often associated with women aged 50+ (it was a very common name in the 50s and 60s).  Bertha has the same connotations.  If you want something unique, Codillea will work.  If you're looking for something more modern than Shakespeare or 1950s, try things like Jennifer, Sophie, Marie, Alyssa, Julie, Ainsley (very unique; this is actually a Gaelic name), or Jaime.
