Avie for a girl??

What do you all think of Avie for a girl?? Does it sound made up or too different? We already have a little girl called Mia. I love the names Ava, Eva and Evie but unfortunately they are already taken by other family / friends

Sounds made-up.

Definitely sounds made up.

It’s no where near as nice as Mia

How about Aimee, Alice, Anna or Amelia? Sorry, really don't like Avie...it sounds like an aviary for birds....

What about Avery? She could be Avie for short.

There is an Irish girls name: Aveen. Usual spelling Aoibheann sometimes pronounced E Van but I knew a girl growing up (I'm 40) who spelled it Aveen and the more popular pronunciation is Aveen.

Awful. But then again all made up names are

Vanessa and Wendy are made up names, and they're ok.

If you have friends and family with Evie, Eva, Ava type names, why would you name yours Avie?

Avia sounds better but I like Avie, it's cute.

I know an Averlie- she was named after her Nana who was Valerie so an anagram.

As in Ay-vee? I like it.

I don't see the point in avoiding Eva, Ava and Evie and choosing Avie instead.

All these names just blur into each other and sound the same.

Also, other people will have had the same bright idea so you might find you end up with a whole bunch of little Avies at playgroup and school.
