How many Evies do you know?!

So grateful for all the responses on my previous thread.
To further this - and hopefully help to narrow things down further for us - I wanted to ask specifically how any Evies do you know? If you’re happy to share your region (north, south etc) that would be great.
Thanks so much to those who already answered this as part of my previous thread!

Thanks in advance!

About 5 years ago about half my Brownie pack were called Eve, Evie or Ava. If they weren't called that it was Millie ,Molly or Tilly.

Frankenpug23 · 13/04/2023 19:43

I have an Evie and I know of 2 others (both younger) - we call ours Eve 😀

WonderingWanda · 13/04/2023 19:45

I know one adult and one child Evie both in London.

Loads. London.

At my daughter's dancing there is 'big Evie,' 'medium Evie' and 'little Evie.' Aged 9, 7 and 4. I also have a friend with a teenaged Evie. And mum acquaintances with 7 year old Eva and Evelyn. I know a toddler Evelyn too. We are north England.

And going back to my original point, the 'sea' of Eve, Evie, Eva, Ava, Evelyn, Aoife just doesn't exist in my area. I know one adult Eve, who is an Evonne, one Eva, who is my 10yo DD, and a 14yo Eva, who lives in a different part of the country. I don't know any others but apparently they're everywhere.

They are everywhere. I’m at the arse end of the planet, and they’re everywhere. One random region in one country not having that many doesn’t make any difference.

Evie - and its ilk - are everywhere.

It’s an of-the-moment name, which means it will date (there is no doubt about this). Whether that bothers you (generic) is entirely individual and up to you. Clearly it doesn’t bother a lot of people.

1 and she is a stuck up pain in the arse!

MyAnacondaMight · 13/04/2023 20:31

Four. If you include Eva and Ava then 13.

Their brothers are pretty much all called Theo and/or Teddy.

My little girl is Evelyn, Evie for short. I live in Leeds and I don't know any others personally.

RheneasAndSkarloey · 13/04/2023 20:56

My DD had an Evie, an Eva, two Ava's and an Aoife (Ee-fa) in her primary school class - and there were only 8 girls!

BestWorkOfArt · 13/04/2023 20:56

I know four aged 3-15. Also one baby called Eve but they call her Evie.

justanotherdrama · 13/04/2023 21:20

There's 4 in my sons pre-school and then 2 in my dd's year 2 class and I know of another 3!

Lots of them but it's a lovely name
Just very very popular

toiletinacupboard · 13/04/2023 21:21

I know quite a few Evie pets named after the pokemon

(Eevee, for reference)

PiercingsAndTattoosRockChick · 13/04/2023 21:26

I know way too many Evie's. My daughter is friends with them and I keep getting mixed up which Evie she's relating too 😂

Idratherbepaddleboarding · 13/04/2023 21:33

3 aged 14, 13 and 11 in the North West. All lovely. I also know lots of Eve, Eva, Ava type named children though.

Almost as many responses as there are Evie's. Grin Sorry couldn't resist.

pancakesandpepsi · 13/04/2023 22:03

@MuffinToSeeHere should have predicated that one 😂😂
