So if you like the name Eva, thinking along the same lines, can you think of other names?

Avis?

Only met two people ever with the name, so fairly rare (apart from the entire worldwide chain of car rental offices! )

I agree NL, Ada is lovely.
Also like Ina and Viv. And Thea. Thea is gorgeous.

NL/franca, where does 'Ada' come from? One of my dd's friends has that name and her parents are not from UK.

Mia
Saskia
Ella
Portia

BS it was quite a popular name in the past in Italy.
It has 2 origins: 1 is hebraic from adah (adorned) and the other is german, short name for Adele/Adelaide etc. Means aristocratic origins.
sorry bad english

blueshoes · 13/01/2009 13:01

nice, thanks franca

Northern Lurker,I think your'e right, I noticed that Alice in Wonderland's sister is called Ada.

Evie was popular before Edie, I know of a couple of Edies now. And Ava first pathes the way for Ada. IMO.

LiffeyMermaid · 13/01/2009 13:33

Sister names for Eva (not E names)

Rachel
Susie
Naomi
Beth
Rosie
Martha

Ada is lovely.

Mabel and Martha are nice too, and Ivy (but poison).

Lisey09 · 13/01/2009 15:38

Ada is lovely... makes me think of that song by Sarah McLachlan "Adia".

Clarissa? Not heard of much these days

belgo · 13/01/2009 15:41

I know a couple of Adas. It's a very nice name. It can be short for Adrienne.

belgo · 13/01/2009 15:42

Adele is lovely. So is Alice.

My eldest was almost an Ada (but spelt Aida)

Eva and Matilde (not matilda - altho that's pretty too)
Audrey, or Aubrey (is that a boys name? I like it for a girl!)
May.
Molly.
Bessie.
Rose.

Just a few that sound quite nice together.
