I think I like it but my 9 month pregnant hormones are clouding my judgement. I wanted something not super common but not to out there - is this it?

I love it OP! Adding this to my list right now.

Definitely not baby brain. I think it’s a great name

To me, it’s a mixture of strong and gentle and works for a little boy an adult, a rock star or an accountant. Not difficult to say or spell either.

The only negative I have heard (on MN ages ago I think) is that it sounds a bit surname-y. Like Evans with a bit missing. Not a biggie though.

It’s close to the top of my list but sadly DP is not so keen.

Has someone been watching Keeping Faith?
Great name - manly, traditional and unmessaboutable.

We considered Evan but ended up having a girl instead. I love the name!

I know a 5 year old girl called Evan. I was surprised at first ( calling the register and expecting a boy) but now I really like it on her
