Evelyn nn Evie in the UK?

Have always wanted Amelia but that seems off the charts. Evelyn has come to me now as a name instead.
Thanks

Also still contemplating Rosemund (Rosie) or Robyn

V v popular. I actually know more Evies than Amelias. Not sure theyre all Evelyns though.

There are so many Evie’s and Ava’s in our school- at least two in every year group. Year three has five Ava’s. I like Evelyn but if you will shorten it then there may be quite a few similar names.

What about Rosalind? Ore Rosemary?

Thanks AuntiStella, yes it is a typo error, should be Rosamund. Maybe not great if I misspell from the start :-)

Depending on where you live it's very popular. We've recently moved and there were lots of Evies at our old area. It's a very pretty name and lots of people love it.

There have been an awful lot of girls called Eve/Evie, Evelyn, and the similar Ava. Put them together and it's probably the most frequently used name.

Rosamund (did you have a typo?) is a lovely name. There are a fair few Rosies around (sometimes nn, sometimes stand alone) but I think many fewer than the Eve names.

Robyn is much less common, I've only come across one in RL, though it's quite often discussed here for Christmas babies.

Who cares if you love it? Still unlikely youll meet/ know more than 2 or 3 others. I like Rosemund.

I have a three year old so come across a lot of toddlers at nursery and parties etc. There are A LOT of Rosie and Evie! Very popular! Nice names though. I know one Amelia who is 6.

My niece is Evelin I would say it’s in the top 15 at the moment but pick what you like I have a Sophie and she’s the only one in her class.
