I would also like to put in Joy....
However does this sound totally ridiculous with the first name Grace as they are both ‘virtue’ names
Does Grace Evelyn Joy sounds silly?

Other ‘third’ option is
Eva Aurelia Joy

Evelyn Or a variation of must be included but not as a first name - it’s my grandmothers name.

Any other ideas would also be welcome as I’ve three weeks left and stressing now!

So 3 of us have same name 4 another same name 4 another same name. Very confusing!

I don't like Joy at at all, but Grace Evelyn on its own is lovely. Although I actually think Evelyn Grace flows better. Personally I would go with this.

Aurelia is too princessy and there are too many different pronunciations. And it's likely to date IMO.

@LotusClover thanks for you feedback - I did say in the first message that Evelyn was to be included but not as a first name

Aurelia Evelyn Joy.

Gorgeous.

@SerenityNowwwww eve-lin because this is the way that my grandmother says her name - and the reason why I don’t want to use it as a first name as I’m really not keen on Evie which is the inevitable shortening

@theresaplaceforus ah yes, sorry I missed that. Well Grace Evelyn is still a nice combo. Smile

@MsTSwift

Anything that isn’t an Eve variant name or Grace. Both names are massively over used. I have two girls at secondary and there are hundreds. It’s the equivalent of calling your daughter Sarah in the 80s. The names are nice enough but so overused they are wallpaper names now. My friends with Eves regret it tbh
This is always said on MN but I have a teen Eva and we don't know any others. There weren't any at her primary school, there aren't any at her secondary school and there aren't any at her hobby group. No regrets at all from us.

You can’t move for Eves and Eva’s round here
