Ava

Eva xx

I think Ava is a gorgeous name, I've liked it ever since I was little, when it wasn't popular at all, and of course now it's far more widely used (annoying when that happens ey?).

Ava

Love 'Eve' tho...

Ava.

Neither. Waaaaaaaaaaaay too popular. But, if you must, Eva (because it is more classic)

I prefer Ava, but am a bit biased as I have a lovely little Ava of my own. I have never met any other Avas and she is almost 4.

Eva.

Both are gorgeous but my DN is Eva and she is utterly delicious.

People who say either are common are of the Trixie-Catflap base - ignore!

janey68 · 26/08/2012 10:13

They're both fairly common nowadays but Eva seems a bit less frequently used so I would go for that.
They're both nice names and very similar so its difficult to say which is 'better ' than the other, so I'd go for the one that's less likely to be so popular. But even so I bet there will be other eva / ava in your dds classes at school

My dd is called Ava so Ava for me :)

JiltedJohnsJulie · 26/08/2012 10:23

Think it depends on where you live, both are really, really common around here.

CherryBlossom27 · 26/08/2012 10:27

I prefer Ava, but I think Eva is more classic. Both lovely names!

Ava

My DD is Evelyn. When we named her, we didn't know a single Evie/Eve/Eva/Ava. And now there are looaaaads. But I still only know one Evelyn.
