So I just wanted to hear your honest opinions on the name Eva. I appreciate all your opinions both negative and positive. Also, any middle name ideas?

Nice name. Think I have a preference for evie But with Eva you also have the option to sometimes use evie or eve aswell. Personally popularity doesn’t bother me, there is a reason why names are popular.

It's a lovely name (I have a beautiful daughter called Eva so am biased). It means "life" and is a very old name, so I say go with it! If the popularity of it bothers you, Ava is a less well used option or possibly Evelyn?

Both of your suggestions are more popular than Eva! Ava is the fourth most popular name in England and Wales. It really is not a less well-used option I am afraid.

Lovely name.

As pp have said there are a lot of very similar names which are very very popular. It's likely to be mistaken for the ubiquitous Ava from time to time.

Not if your surname is Smith, however, as undoubtedly GCSE students will still be flogging their way through An Inspector bloody Calls in seventeen years' time.

I really like it.

It’s fine as long as the popularity doesn’t put you off. Goes with all the Evie, Evelyn, Eve, Ava names that are really popular.
