Evalina

Is Evalina/Evelina pretty and a bit mystical sounding, or slightly twee and a bit sickly? I honestly can't decide. Also, which spelling do you prefer?

Thank you!

Eva lovely evalina just plain weird and horrible sounding :/

I think Evelina is the name of SJ Strum's daughter on YouTube - she has a lot of content about baby names so may be worth watching a few of those to see if you like it said out loud. I think it's pretty. Not sure what a good nn would be though? Lina?

I think the first spelling would be easier for people to pronounce it how you like it 🙂 As they may put too much emphasis on the second e in the other spelling... But I imagine she would need to spell it out for most people anyway x

I'd pronounce it Ever-leena.

Hospital? Why?

How are you pronouncing them? X

It would just make me think of the hospital.

Sorry I think it's terrible. I don't like anything with "Lina" at the end.
