Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Evelina is my favourite (I dislike the evalina spelling though)

It’s actually our choice for our daughter. I love it because it’s underused, yet an old name, but it doesn’t feel old. It’s feminine, but not too sickly and I think it will suit every age of life. I have loved it since I was a little girl and first read the book. We have it paired with Alice at the moment.

I also really like Matilda, Josephine, Evangeline and Charlotte from your list (all were on our list) but Evelina is just so special to me.

Josephine - two or my favourite aunts, both amazing women.

Orla - my middle name, though just spotted it auto corrects to oral!

Juliet - not in your list, but love it.

Jennifer - isn’t dates to any decade, beautiful.

Frances is lovely!

Keeva is truly awful. If you like the name, spell it properly.

starkid · 25/11/2018 23:07

Mariella
Emma

Because I like them the most :) (sorry not good at giving reasons, it's subjective haha)

RickOShay · 25/11/2018 23:10
