I feel that Evie is more of a nickname and so so popular that it's lost its appeal, I think Eve is beautiful though. Eve Isabella would be absolutely stunning in my humble opinion Smile

Freya, definitely.

Evie seems like such a non-name to me. I don't know why. It seems too nicknamey, or simple to be a standalone name. Freya seems much more substantial.

Freya Isabel is lovely

Freya isabel is gorgeous though

I prefer Evie

DramaAlpaca · 07/10/2017 16:03

Of the two, Freya. But I like Eve better than both.

faintlinesquints · 07/10/2017 16:00

Love Freya.

Liadain · 07/10/2017 15:54

Freya. Evie is too cutesy.

early30smum · 07/10/2017 14:52

Love both. If pushed, Evie.

MikeUniformMike · 07/10/2017 14:05

Evie. Freya Eve is a no because of the invisible r (as in Laura Norder etc.) Freya Reeve.

AnxietyStrikes · 07/10/2017 13:51

Evie - just because I was bullied by a freya at work for a year before I went on mat leave so the name has negative connotations

Sophronia · 07/10/2017 13:48

Freya, but I also like Eve more than either.

euanthesheepiloveyou · 07/10/2017 12:20

Both a bit meh. Popular but pretty enough. Probably prefer Evie. But I like Eve much more than either.

Chaffinch4 · 07/10/2017 12:12

They're actually about the same popularity wise. Evie is at number 15 and Freya number 19. I prefer Evie. (Although my phone constantly auto corrects it to Evil...)

bridgetreilly · 07/10/2017 11:44

Evie.

ChocolateCrunch · 07/10/2017 11:08

Freya

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 07/10/2017 10:01

Evie.

makingmiracles · 07/10/2017 09:50

Haha how funny, my choices were Evie or Freya too!! ...she ended up as an Evie!

Ionarocks · 07/10/2017 09:48

Freya. But Eve more than both of them.

Teddy7878 · 07/10/2017 09:47

Freya. Evie is too common but still pretty

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 07/10/2017 09:47

Freya
