How many Evas do you know?

[sparkling123]

Just that really and also how would you pronounce it?

1. It's very common. Eeevah. Pretty but a bit overused - like Ella.

A lot. Seriously a lot.

It always surprises me, because I know ONE Eve, which I think is far more beautiful, and about 20 Evas. All under the age of 10.

I know loads (10+)ranging in age from 50 down to newborn, it’s pretty but so popular.

I know a few Eva's and Ava's.

Always reminds me of the film Wall-E and the robot saying 'Eeeev-a'!

One. It is short for Evangaline. She's three.

Can I also ask what regions people are in? You can keep it general like N, S, E, W England, or just the country. I read one statistic that it's most popular in Scotland.

One, pronounced eeva

My little girl is called Eva and she's the only one I know😊 no Eva's at nursery, never come across another Eva in play groups etc think it just depends where you live..

I don’t know any - and I have a one year old DD and we go to a lot of groups, so I know a lot of babies! I’m pretty sure I’ve not met a single Eva. We’re in SE England.

I know 5 people who have had baby girls in the last few years and 3 of them are called Eva.

I know a baby Eva (pronounced EE-va), a baby Eve and a teenage Evie.

I teach and have come across quite a few - also Eve, Ava, Evie, very popular.

I'm in SW England. I think there's a general trend for names starting with vowels (especially A).

Only one and she's in her 60s. NE

I’m in the SE and I know approximately eleventy billion. It’s one of the most popular names here for kids up to about 7 or 8 so must have come in about 2010.

I have a niece called Eva who is 15 and everything thought her parents had lost their mind, so interesting how fast it’s changed.

I know 4, all under 5 - the north

Oh yes Evie very popular here too but with older kids on the whole so maybe it’s been slightly replaced by Eva.

Don’t know any Eves but I think that’s super pretty.

North Yorkshire
2 Evas
3 Avas
2 Evies
2 Eves
Age range 3 - 9

I know one short for Evangeline she’s about 6.
I have an Evie and despite people on mumsnet saying it’s really popular/ theres so many Evies/ it’s really boring etc my Evie is the only one in her whole school and I rarely meet other Evies when out and about. I just depends where you live. We live in London btw.

1. Pronounced Eeeva. I'm in Essex.

@Dinosaursdontgrowontrees yeah, I feel like this will probably be the case. I don't know anyone at all called Eva but have read about how popular it is.

I know one Eva (Czech and in her 60s). Pronounced Eee-va but the ‘va’ is stressed slightly more than the ‘Ee’.
I know an 8 yr old Eve and there are 2 Evie’s and two Ava’s in DS yr 2.
Am in the SE.
DS1 is Leo and despite this being in top 10 he’s the only one in his class and was the only one at nursery. If you love the name don’t worry too much.
I only know of one Olivia and one Amelia in the past few years and they’re super popular!

Many. I teach, we have at least one in each class (plus Evie, Ava, Eve etc). I also run an out of school activity for kids and we have loads there too. It's really one of the most generic names out there imo.

Oh, and I am in Ireland.

None, I’m in south east. I know one Ava
