I think [name]Evelina[/name] with one “v” is easier to say with your surname than [name]Viviana[/name] with two v’s.
They are both pretty and you can’t go wrong with either. I voted for [name]Viviana[/name] cause I prefer it a little bit over [name]Evelina[/name] and I prefer its meaning. I wouldn’t worry about the name being used already by relatives you rarely see. Heck, maybe they will get a kick out of having the same name. Like they are part of a special club or something. I know kids who like having the same name as somebody else.
Here’s a weird thought- feel free to ignore it. Your last name really makes me think of “brevis.” Longus and brevis are long and short in anatomical terminology… Brevity, abbreviated, etc. I hear [name]Viviana[/name] Brevus and I think it sounds a lot like Latin for “short life.” Sorry- awful thought. It’s a pretty name. [name]Evelina[/name] is too - very lacy and delicate.
+1 for [name]Evelina[/name]. It’s a lovely sounding name. To me, [name]Viviana[/name] sounds like an attempt to modernize [name]Vivian[/name], a name which has not really aged well and sounds like an older woman. [name]Caroline[/name] is a lovely middle name BTW!
[name]Evelina[/name] [name]Caroline[/name] is beautiful! It has my vote.
Thank you all for the feedback! Please keep it coming - it’s such a help!
[name]Just[/name] wondering if you decided on one of these? They are both in my narrow down list but leaning toward [name]Viviana[/name]. Funny enough [name]Caroline[/name] is the middle name I would use as it’s the hubs grandmother, and aunt!!!
