Evelyn - Most common pronunciation

[SemperIdem]

Would you say:

Eve-lin
Ehv-lin
Ev-uh-lin

I’m just curious as to which pronunciation is most popular. It’s one of those names that is nice but nobody ever seems to agree on how to say.

My DD is called Evelyn we pronounce it Ev-uh-lin

Come to Scotland.

if there is an R in a word, we pronounce it.
and we don’t add in random Rs where there are none (eg draw-ring)

OP - I’d say Ev-lin

Ev Lyn

It's an old family name of which there's been a few. It has always been pronounced this way

Ever-lyn is the way I would pronounce it and it’s the best way to say it imo. I’ve also heard of Eve-lyn but Ever-Lyn seems to be the most common pronunciation, at least where I am.

Ever-lyn does sound the best I agree.

In my rhotic accent Ev-uh-lin and Ever-lin are different.

Same

You're yet to hear me!

Ev-linn

My Grandad used to call me Evelyn as a nickname, although it's nothing like my actual name. He pronounced it Ev-Lyn.

That was the decision we made in the end. It had been on our short list for a while. My name gets variable pronunciation and as a kid I would sometimes find it uncomfortable correcting an adult (to be honest I still sometimes find it uncomfortable if it's said wrongly in a large meeting or something). I didn't want my DD to feel the same so picked something more straightforward (albeit with a couple of spelling variants but that's less annoying than pronunciation).
