What do you think of the following combinations:

Sienna Evelyn
Grace Evelyn

I wanted somethings slightly more unique for the first name but these are the only two I feel any sort of connection with at the moment. Open to other suggestions, my previous thread was really helpful.

Middle will be Evelyn after my grandmother.

Sienna Evelyn is my favourite. I actually like Evelyn the best, but if you’re not keen on Evie then I understand why you’d keep it as a middle name.

My grandmother always said that she wouldn’t call a daughter Grace ‘in case she’s not’ and that has stuck with me a little bit Blush

Grace. I really like it. It’s much nicer as a first name.

Both lovely

Clementine ?

I prefer Grace. Don’t like Sienna at all.

Not a huge fan of either as Sienna is bit too frilly and Grace is a tricky name to pull off if a child isn't very graceful so I think it works better as a middle name.

I really like Evelyn though.
Here are a few more pretty feminine sounding names that work well with Evelyn - although I would worry too much about how they flow as middle names get used so rarely.

Florence
Ada
Isabelle/Isobel
Beatrice
Ottilie
Harriet
Imogen
Matilda
Phoebe
Felicity
Margot
Francesca

Grace Evelyn flows better.

Not keen on either. Grace is ok but a bit boring, Sienna is awful and very popular where I live.
Evelyn is lovely, do you like Eve as a nn instead of Evie? I would go with Evelyn if so.

Lavenderblues · 01/06/2020 11:22

Not keen on either Grace or Sienna. But I'd choose Sienna if I had to.

One of daughters has grace as her middle name, it's beautiful, my nan was called Evelyn, also pronounced the same way 😍 so I would go with that combination or evelyn grace. I really don't like sienna sorry
