Sorry, not a good idea.

How about Aaron, Aidan, Daniel, Abraham (Abe), Eli, Liam?

Aw I sympathise greatly, I have a ds 7 who is called Adam and desperately wanted to call my dd Evie but as soon as I mentioned it to anyone they burst out laughing so decided against it. We did find another name we loved tho. Adam is a fabulous name tho

Absolutely not! No, no and no again!

Adam is lovely, but not with Evie as a siblingSmile

No, if I met an Evie and Adam, I might start giggling inappropriately.

Adam is a lovely name... But no, you can't.... It is too silly, sorry.

Perhaps Aaron? Or Eben? Or Evan?

When my mum was younger she had a boyfriend called Joseph. Her name is Mary and she said the sniggers and jokes were one of the reasons they broke up.

Don't do it. Please

noooooooooooooooooooooo!
[hsmile]

Both nice names individually can you use Evie as a middle name? How about
Ellie

stars it would be a bit mean to change the name of the existing DD for the benefit of the future DS! Wink
