Name thoughts for Avie?

[ShootingStar07]

What do you think of the name Avie for a baby girl? We are expecting our first girl in January but would not like to share name ideas with family and friends, so any feedback on here would be welcome.

I would just go for Ava or Eva.

Not sure people would know how to pronounce it.

Sorry, OP, it sounds like a set of initials to me. Evie is nice though.

Only with the middle name More

Ava, Eva, Evie and Ivy are all lovely, albeit very popular right now.

Avie just sounds made up. It sounds like someone is trying to be different, because they know the others are so popular currently, when in reality Avie will just blend in with them anyway.

She'll spend her whole life explaining to people that it's Avie, not Ava, Evie or Ivy.

Personally I really wouldn't advise it.

It's not a name. It could be a nickname for something but a name on its own? No

I like it. I’ve heard it before on maybe two / three little girls near me so it’s definitely not something I’d class as made up. I like all of the Ava, Eva, Evie variations. Avie is slightly different, a bit more unique than the others.

I’ve have several (like multiple) friends called Avi. Generally spelt without the e. Disagree that it’s made up.

Mostly From Hebrew short for Avraham (Hebrew for Abraham). Or girl short for Abigail (Hebrew for Abigail).

Other similar Aviv or Aviva. Or Abie. Or more common Evie, Ivy, Abby, Ava etc

I like it as short for something, maybe Aveline?

How would you pronounce it? Ah-vee, Ay-vee, Av-ee, Ivy? I think it looks like you're trying to spell Ivy a bit "differently".

It’s a Hebrew male name

Avery?

We would pronounce it Ay-vee.

Thanks for the feedback so far. We are wanting to go with something more rare, and appreciate it will not be to everyone's taste, but do appreciate everyone's thoughts.

I think it sounds like you want to use a popular sounding name like Ava or Evie but want it to be different, sorry. I think there are loads of lovely names out there that are not super popular. I’d look at the top 500-1000 names for ideas.

Avis is a girl’s name. It was a name used in the book The Well Beloved by Thomas Hardy

There is an Avie at the school I work in.I think its nice.

All the people I know say it Aa-vee.

so risk of mispronouncing..

Sorry OP but it just sounds made up and like you're trying too hard to be different from the Evie, Ava, Ivy syndrome. I don't even think it's particularly great given all the lovely girls' names out there.

It looks like a spelling mistake for Evie.

Gravie

It sounds made up to me as well. Just sounds like you like Eva, Evie etc but don't want to use them because they're too popular.

It's very random

Call her Ava or even Avery (not v popular here but it seems to be in the US) and use it as a nickname, if you must

If you want rare I would think again, because it's just going to blur with all the Ava, Evie Eves

I like it. Pretty and easy to say and spell

I knew an Aviva who went by Avi. I preferred Aviva tbh.

It's not going to sound rare at all though, she'll just be anothe in the huge group of Ava's, Eva's, Evie's and various convoluted misspellings of those names.

It makes me think of AV.
