We have only three weeks left until we have our first little girl. We decided on the first name quite early but have struggled to decide on a middle name that we love. Our shortlist is:

Eva Lily
Eva Grace
Eva Belle
Eva Mae

Which name do you prefer? All thoughts, both positive and negative are very welcome!

Thanks xx

I quite like Eva Faith, but still don't love it. Seren is nice also, I haven't heard that name before!

Ooh they're all beautiful! They are popular at the minute but my dds middle name is grace (well one is she has 2 middle names) I know it's very popular but it was for family so I went with it anyway. Eva grace is lovely X

No the names are not family connected, they were simply names that we picked that we liked but I think as many of you have mentioned it is the popularity of the names at the mo that is making me hesitate and is why I'm struggling to choose a name.

I just haven't found any other names that I love with Eva so suggestions are very welcome xx

Eva Grace or Eva Mae flow the best but I would choose Grace personally as Mae has become a filler middle name recently imo.

Eva Grace is an absolutely beautiful name.

LadyAntonella · 05/06/2016 20:57

I don't love any of them sorry though they definitely aren't horrible. I really like Eva and I like some of your middle names too. It's just the combination of Eva with the middle names which I'm not terribly keen on if that makes sense.

Are the middle names family names at all or just names you like the sound of? If it's the latter then would a different choice of middle name work? If it's the former, then my favourite would be Eva Grace.

I agree with WellErr, Eva is a lovely name but I really don't like the middle names especially Mae Blush. They're all massively common at the minute.

JenniferAnistonsHair · 05/06/2016 20:44

I prefer Eva Grace

WellErrr · 05/06/2016 20:41

Erm. I like Eva. I don't know if this would bother you but all those combos are SO common now.

How about a different middle name?
