Evamarie or Aisling?

[27Harper]

Currently pregnant with baba number 2 and me and DH are are currently sifting through baby names. We have a 1 year old Leo, and we're only 5 weeks pregnant so still early days before we know the sex but if it's a boy we've settled on Sam, just need a girls name now! It's between Evamarie (one name) and Aisling, pronounced Ash-ling (DH is Irish). Really like both names but can't choose so some opinions could really help if possible. Brianne/Brianna isn't out of the mix either. Thank you xx

I don't get why people are slagging off Evamarie. Hyphenated names get a lot of stick on here but leave out the hyphen and people start saying you've spelt it wrong!

Aisling is lovely. I always thought it was ash-leen but I'm not Irish so what do I know!

@Kazzawazza69 i know, you cant win these days xx

I'm Irish and I find the name Ashling is nice but boring, a bit old fashioend. I know several people in their 30's with that name. Eva-Marie is nicer.

It's "wrong" in the same way Sarahjane, Marylouise or Lisamarie is wrong.

There are three choices. You don't have to choose from hyphenated or meshed, you can just have them separate;

Sarah Jane
Sarah-Jane

The mesh, hyphenate or leave debate probably needs its own thread, TBF
