I love this name but worry it's one of those that will forever be associated with one famous person. We are not into boxing, and we're Caucasian - do you think that matters? WDYT of the name?

Sorry, it is too feminine (I assume it's for a boy ?)

Evan is a great name

It's a fabulous name - was on my shortlist for DS.

Well, Evander Holyfield does go someway towards de-feminising it...!

Not a fan myself.
