Initially the town was known as Harris which was developed in 1903 then extended in 1905 when the local progress association asked for additional lots to be surveyed. It was around this time the town became known as Vivien, since the Vivien Gold Mine and the Vivien Gem Reef were both located close by. The townsite was gazetted in 1906.[1] The name Vivien is thought to be in honour of the author May Vivienne whose book about her travels about the Western Australian goldfields was published in 1902.[2] References1. ^{{LandInfo WA|c|V|26 February 2011}} {{Towns Goldfields-Esperance WA}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://members.westnet.com.au/caladenia/ghosttowns/V.pdf|title=Morawa District Historical society|year=2009|accessdate=26 February 2011}} 2 : Mining towns in Western Australia|Ghost towns in Western Australia |
