Stuck between these four names for june baby girl

[Abbiepriestman]

Eleanor
Clara
Etta
Evelyn

I really like Etta from your list. Another to consider in the same vein might be Emmeline.

I like Evelyn but there are two in my son’s class- one pronounced Eve-lyn and the other Everlyn

It’s a bit of a pain to be honest

Im always interested in the reason a name has been chosen.
when you know why you like something that makes it easier to choose- is it the meaning, the memory of a person, or?

Evelyn is so overused and there are sooooo many Evies it’s dull.

I really like Clara, Etta feels like half a name.

I think all of these names are lovely.

Etta or Clara are lovely! On my baby name list if we do ever have another.

I personally think Eleanor is a bit of a boring name (sorry!). Much prefer just Elle on its own, Nora or Norie.

Evelyn is a lovely name but know of one who always has to correct the pronunciation so they could get annoying. I would assume it was pronounced eh-va-lin but others pronounce it ee-va-lin. It is also very popular, so depends if you want something a little less popular to go with Elaia - gorgeous name by the way, was nearly my girls middle spot!

I like Etta but also love Henrietta so would put that on the BC

I like all but Etta stands out as the best for me. I think it's classy and unique whereas second on my list Eleanor (or Ellie variants) is very popular. Only thing to consider would be a accents, I could imagine my sister for example saying eh-uh

You'd also need to consider the surname. Etta Lamb would be ridiculous.

Love Etta and Clara! I know a little Etta and considered Clara myself

Clara

Evelyn will be shortened to Eve/Evie as soon as she’s old enough if others don’t do it before that.

You don’t have to decide now. See what she looks like when she’s born

You already have an Elaia so although Eleanor is my favourite, it is too similar to Elaia.

Do you like ..
Mietta - Mee-ETTA
Loretta
Gisele

Thank you ! Im really stuck moreso with Evelyn , Eleanor and clara . May have to wait and see if she looks like the name xx

Eleanor

Surname would be wilkes ! So not a crazy one but has to flow yes

Clara definitely!

Clara is lovely.

As pp, Etta is sweet but feels more of a nickname.
Could you use a longer name of which Etta could be the shortened version?

Mariette
Georgette
Harriet
Arietta
Juliet
Collette
Antoinette
Lysette
Scarlet

Yeah it will. There's two Evelyns and an Evalina in my 8-baby NCT group, and all are shortened to Evie.

I think Elaia probably rules out Eleanor? They sound so similar.

I like them all which is unusual for me.

Eleanor if I had to choose

I think were most stuck between clara and Evelyn( maybe we will have to see what she looks like at birth !) i know she might be nicknamed which annoys me i would nickname her that though but not replace it as a name as a whole ! Elaïa goes to baby ballet and theres 35 girls and no girls with those names but could be the age range maybe there 18m/3 years ! Or maybe where i live ? Because i know Evelyns on the rise and Eleanor but again never meet any which is strange really ! Lol xxx

Hmm with you already having an Elaia I would probably go with Eleanor or Evelyn.
Elaia and Clara doesn't flow very well.

Do you like Evangeline? Similar to Evalina but more traditional and nicer I think!

If you're stick between two try asking your MW how many they've met recently. That should give you a feel for how popular the name is in your area, and makes can be very regional

Go for Clara then. I can’t see any reason why you couldn’t! And it’s a different letter which is nice. And also two syllables.

How about Etholle pronounced as Et-o-lee so Etta is a good nn.

My preference from Evelyn Wilkes or Clara Wilkes is Clara. I’m just going on personal preference and not being sure of pronunciation.

I like Eleanor
Etta feels like a nickname. My phone did not recognise and may have auto corrected - first option Etc. it was fine with the other three

I don’t know about popularity of the name, but does it matter to you?
adults seem to split into, I like having an easy, average name or I felt just one in a crowd with my popular name.

Or I love my name as it’s unusual and I get remembered vs I hate standing out.
