I was on the bus this morning and overheard a woman next to me saying Evelina in a different way than what I used to say
Over all I just want to know how do you pronounce Evelina?
(Eev-lina) or (EHV-lina) or another way? Let me know
eh-veh-LEE-nah is how I’d say it.

Neither. I pronounce it as four syllables, not three. Something like ehv-ah-LEE-na.
Although eev-uh-LEE-na wouldn’t surprise me.

I say it like this as well
I would also do four syllables: ehv-uh-leen-ah.
It’s the name of a children’s hospital in my city, and this is how they pronounce it too, so I’ve always assumed this was the ‘right’ way.
Id pronounce similar to how other users have said they pronounce it: Evv-eh-lee-nah
Eh-vuh-leen-uh
ee-vuh-leen-uh
