Nevaeh

[yayitsagirl]

What do people think of this name? Not common in my area and I really like the meaning. I went to a medium and she told me my grandma said I'd be pregnant in the next few months and that it would be a "little princess". Everything she said about my past was so accurate and yesterday I found out that bub is actually a girl. We was so close and I wanted a name related to her, but her name alone is too old and dated to be used, and too long as a middle name ( I like one syllable names).

When I came across this I just fell in love, suggested it to family members and my mum said it's a "chav" name OH doesn't like it either but think it's only because he's never heard it. My dad however is the same as me and loves it. Just wondering how it comes across to everyone else? Won't be offended, if it is that bad to everyone then I'll more than likely be put off and find another. Just curious!

Well, sorry but I think your mum is right. Very chavvy name around my area. What was your Nans name?

Little princess? Nevaeh is horrific, sorry.

It doesn't mean anything because it's a made up name. Check the last time someone suggested calling their baby "heaven spelt backwards" here.

Why not call it Natas or Lleh?

And Nevaeh is 3 syllables. How are you pronouncing it to make it one?

Yes it's chavvy. Sorry.

Whatever your grandmas name is I can guarantee it's a million times better than Nevaeh.

Great, another ‘we hate common people’ name thread.

Yes, that was the medium told me I'd have little girl.

My grandmas name is Theresa.

Thanks for honest opinions, but weren't all names once "made up" I've heard it a few times so it's not like I've made it up myself.

Thea?

How the medium *

I meant the middle name one syllable, sorry for not making it clear.

What was your nans name?. Nevaeh is really chavvy imo. Sorry OP. I don't like that word but it really is.

It’s made up! There is no meaning! It’s just heaven backwards. It’s a horrible name and yes chavvy.

This is the link (I hope) to the previous thread where someone posted asking for thoughts.

Just read your update. Tess/Tessa? Thea?. Did she have a middle name?

Go with Theresa and Tess for short. Nevaeh is hideous

It's not a real name. I will never accept this as a real name. It's a backwards word that has no proper pronunciation and not only does it look ugly it comes across as desperate.

Please no.

Your DD is not a princess, she is a regular every day child who will grow into an adult. Bare that in mind.

Noooooo!! It's a made up 'Heaven' backwards that many chats misspell as Neveah, Naveah etc.

Type that word into the MN search bar, there was a fairly recent very long thread about it.

Ffs chavs, not chats

My auntie has already used Thea for her little girl, and we are quite close so not an option.

I'll deffo be finding another name, thanks everyone!

Please don’t use Nevaeh. Theresa is a super name, I think.

It’s awful sorry.

In fairness the medium had a 50% chance of getting the right sex😁

Sorry I’m not a fan, my friend is a neonatal nurse and it’s a popular name on her ward.
Since your GM was Theresa how about Tess. Also did she have a middle name? What was her maiden name?

Tbh I'd just go with Theresa if you want to name her after your grandma.

Tess is a beautiful name
