Oh my darling, evangeline 🦢

It’s an absolutely beautiful name, I love the sounds.

But I can’t separate it from the ‘Evangelical’ meaning, and I’m not [name_m]Christian[/name_m]. So it doesn’t really sit comfortably with me, it makes me think of annoying people on the streets saying “have you heard the good news?” and trying to push pamphlets at me :sweat_smile:

I also agree with Waverly123 about it being “too sweet” like [name_f]Angelica[/name_f] or [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] (and I feel the same about [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] too). They’re very long and pretty and girly in a frilly kind of way which sort of feels like it lacks something solid underneath. [name_m]Like[/name_m] dressing up your girl in pink tutus but not appreciating the bold and fiery, independent, courageous child underneath.

I’m not trying to be disparaging of a name you adore or to detract from how much YOU love the name! It’s just that for me, these are my vibes.
