Is this name really that bad

[liinnnua]

I’m vvv fussy w names.
First baby, a little girl. Due 16th September!
And the only name I adore, always have is Everly!
Everly Violet / Everly Rose / Everly Hope / Everly Lyla
Are all in the running, with Rose as mn being my favourite.
I think it’s so pretty, unusual but not ridiculous, or pretentious.
I like Ever or Ev as nn.
DP loves it too, as do the 2 friends I’ve told. Not gonna tell my mam and nan until she’s born as they are... v opinionated :)
So, did a quick google search of ‘Everly mumsnet’ and ummm, it seems 9/10 MNers hate it - despise it with passion in fact!
I am aware it is Beverly without B, Everly brothers etc... but is it rlly that bad?
And if it truly is horrific, any other suggestions?
I don’t like Evelyn. Prefer modern, unique names.
TIA

Nothing wrong with it. Sounds pleasant. Not weird or pretentious.

Have you considered Ottolie which has a similar rhythm?
Or Cecily?

Ok so I changed my mind
I'm through and through Mancunian
Say Everly in a manc accent
It's not going to work

DH's is uncle is called Everard, now that's horrific!

Unusual but I like it.

How about Valerie? Same sounds, different order.

I like it

You love it. You won’t be happy with anything else.

It’s totally inoffensive, quite cool and easy to pronounce and spell.

Just go for it; she’ll be a gorgeous little Everly Rose.

Love Everly!

Awful.

I actually like but it doesn't matter what we think. You love it and if it the only name you love then you must have it. There is no name tray everyone's going to love but it sounds like you, your partner and your close family love it so that is what matters. I also love the nickname Evie.

It's fairly awful but hey, your child, your dh likes it as do your 2 friends, so clearly we are not the final arbiters.

Are you a fan of the Everly brothers music?

Awful, so is insisting the child is called Ever but you don't have the spine to name her Ever. Grim.

My first thought was of Erin Everly and Axl Rose, so I would probably go with a different middle name.

I think Everly Violet sounds nicer as well.

I know an Everly. IT'S a very pretty name.

I love it! But I probably biased- my niece is an Everly Charlotte 😂

Why would you? Pick something else please

It’s alright, sounds more like a name than Elodie, which mumsnet seems to love. Not my taste but if I met one I wouldn’t be horrified (once worked with a kid called Wolfgang. That’s bad)

Absolutely love it.

I loved Elodie? Very pretty!

But everley is fine, if you love it go for it!

I LOVE it! Everly is gorgeous and paired with Rose is perfect. Congrats OP!

I'm really torn.

I've never heard of it as a first name and don't generally like surnames as first names, made up names, made up spellings of traditional names etc.

But, when you say it aloud it has a nice rhythm and flow. The sounds work well together.

Better than Vulcan

As is every other name...

I really like Everly
💜

I like it. Musical.
