I realise these are two very different styles of name, and probably also not v popular but I like then both!
What do you think? Oh, for a dd that will probably be born in April, so that might be a bit twee 🙈

April in April is fine. I know a June born June and an August born one!!. April is lovely!
Love Evangaline but chances of uses full name at every needed moment are small!! And using a nn is pointless having given the full name iyswim!!

you could always call her the full length name at home, and let the teachers know at school that she wants to be called her full name, however i think you will find other dc will shorten it (which is what happened to my dd)

Hm yes...it would inevitably get shortened to Evie I suppose :/ I'd like to use the full version. I think I'm influenced by the author Clover Stroud's adorable daughter... (Unfortunately Clover has been vetoed I'm starting to sound a bit of a stalker)

I prefer Evangeline but would hate it being shortened whereas you've no worry of that with April
