Florence or Evie

Hi,

I am currently pregnant with my 2nd child and we know it's a baby girl.
We're stuck between two names so any opinions would be great. We already have a Harry and we're stuck between Evie and Florence, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Definitely Florence. Nobody can use Evie now for another eighty years.

This.
Evie is so boring now, it's also peaked. I get that Florence actually is actually more popular but it doesn't get lost in the sea of Ivy, Ava etc

Eve. Evie for a nickname. I know Eve can be seen as rather an austere name for a small child, but it’s an elegant name that she can grow in to.

Florence
It sounds cute on a child but sophisticated on an adult.

We had her 3 weeks ago and decided on Florence - it suits her perfectly 💕

I prefer Evie but the popularity of Evie, Eve, Eva, Ava, Evelyn and Ivy puts me off, so would choose Florence. I prefer Flora

Oops, didn't read the thread. Good choice @EmilyM13 . Congratulations! Flowers Bear

Florence unless Evie is going to be Evelyn or Evangeline on the bc.

I have an Evie and a Harry, both in there early 20's now before both got so popular. I would still choose both again 😊

I like them both but I think I like Florence slightly better.

Those who say there are a lot of Evies around, aren't most of them in their teens and 20s now?
