[oplums]

How many do you know?
Is the only (inevitable) nn Evie? :/

[Zhampagne]

😂 at least she hasn’t changed in two years!

[QueenCuntyFlippers]

Ha! I must have been on 'threads I'm on' and thought it was new. 😂😂 it's true though, she's lovely 😂😂

[Zhampagne]

@QueenCuntyFlippers I noticed your name asi scrolled down - you commented on this thread first time around in 2018!

[Potter4321]

None
North West.

[RuthW]

I don't know any. I love the name but the different ways of saying it put me off.

Eve-lyn
Ever - lyn
Ev-lyn

Which one were you thinking?

[LuckyAmy1986]

None, but many Evies and Evas

[Maduixa]

3 adults: one Eva (EH-vah), one Evy (EH-vee), and one whose name must not be shortened.

1 child: Evelyn or Evvie (but she's not yet school age so not sure what they will ask for her to be called at school).

[Adelais]

I know one baby called Evelyn

@QueenCuntyFlippers zombie thread

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

Thread is 2 years old

I don't actually know any Evelyn's

[QueenCuntyFlippers]

1, she's gorgeous :)

[sheldonstwin]

one: Evelyn Waugh and he was a bloke.

[Cookit]

About three, two aged 2 and one aged about 5.

[HeronLanyon]

3 - one older adult never shortened. The other two are under 6 and both ‘Evie’ at the moment. I love the name. I love it most unshortened.

[namechangedtoday15]

Quite a few here (Cheshire). Mostly pre-school age although there are also lots of Evie's in my DC primary school. I love the name but it's very popular at the moment - when combined with the number of Evies it's by far the number 1 common name at the no here.

[seething1234]

Quite a few, popular name here in Ireland. Went to school with a few (all in their 30s now). Pn Ev-elyn. I've never ever heard the name been shortened to anything even in the school yard.

[17caterpillars1mouse]

I know three. Two are 2 and one is 1 :)

All go by Evelyn pronounced ever-lyn. I don't know if that will change once they start school though

[umberellaonesie]

1 adult who gets her full name but I only know her professionaly. 1 baby who I call Evie which is un heard of for me as I hate nick names shortening names. But it suits her

[buckeejit]

Me - 40 & one child.

I get Ev-elyn & E-velyn (which I don't like - reminds me of She Ra's Evil Lyn)

Also Eve & Eva!

[3out]

The five I know all pronounce it Ev a lin

[Sessy19]

I counted. 16!!! Wiltshire- Hampshire

[Cleanermaidcook]

1, my mil. (Mid 70's)
It can be shortened to Lyn too.

[itbemay]

One! Love the name... eve-lyn or Eva-Lyn pronunciation though?

[Childrenofthesun]

I know three, all aged 8. One goes by the name Evie, the others are Evelyn. One pronounces it Ev-el-yn, the other two Eve-lyn. I don't know any older or younger.

[MikeUniformMike]

Several. All Evies. All subjected to the Ever-lyn/Eve-lyn? confusion.
