I'm 33 weeks pregnant with a girl after suffering from recurrent miscarriage.

Can I have some meaningful name suggestions?

My rainbow baby is called Eviana (pronounced ‘Evi’ as in heavy and ‘Ana’ as in Elsa’s sister). We always get commented on what a pretty name it is and have only ever had 2-3 people tell us ‘that’s...ermmm....unusual!’

Eviana means ‘living one’ in Latin.

Congratulations on your rainbow 🌈
