[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone,
[name_m]Just[/name_m] wondering, what vibes and imagery do you get from [name_f]Evie[/name_f]? 
I think it’s a really pretty name. However, I’m also wondering if it’s professional sounding enough for the workforce when the child grows up. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you think it is?
Thank you so much!

I think it’s bright, lively, and sweet, but substantial enough to work for any age!

It reminds of me of a sunny day on the beach, crystal clear water and colourful umbrellas.

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.
I think it’s darling. It gives me a sweet kind bright slightly pixie vibe. I do have a hard time picturing it on an adult, to be honest. I like it as a nn for [name_f]Eve[/name_f] or [name_f]Eva[/name_f]. Are you saying ‘Ee-vee’? That’s how I would say it at first glance, & that’s definitely how I prefer it. I run into a ton of Evies in real life; a lot of them are said ‘Ev-ee’, but sometimes ‘Ee-vee’. I feel like every little girl I meet is [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u], so all in all, I’m a bit sick of Ev names. But in conclusion, [name_f]Evie[/name_f] is lovely. 
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] my rambling helps!

I think it definitely works on an adult. I get witchy/rockstar vibes but make it sweet.

I like [name_f]Evie[/name_f] as a nn better than as a full name, but I think it would be OK.
Personally, I’d rather be named something longer and called [name_f]Evie[/name_f]. [name_f]My[/name_f] favorite is [name_f]Eva[/name_f] [name_u]Marie[/name_u] as a full name like [name_f]Eva[/name_f] [name_u]Marie[/name_u] [name_u]Saint[/name_u] or [name_u]Evensong[/name_u] or [name_f]Evening[/name_f].

[name_f]Evie[/name_f] is lovely as a nickname for [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f]! I’m actually thinking of it as a nickname for [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f].
What do you think of the combo [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] “Evie”?
I love the idea of a long, versatile middle name for [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f].

Thoughts on [name_f]Evie[/name_f] as a nickname for [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f]? That’s what I’d use if giving [name_f]Evie[/name_f] a full name.

Ee-vee is how I’m pronouncing it! [name_f]Evy[/name_f] would be short for [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u], I’m assuming!
@lilyofthevale [quote=“seawillow, post:2, topic:440853”]
It’s one of those names that seems perfect for every age.

I agree with this 100%! I LOVE this name! I think it is bright, airy, fun, and spunky while also being beautiful and meaningful. I also love [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] but don’t think I could pull it off myself because it’s a very long name that would, in my opinion, be too much for a young child. So for that reason, I prefer [name_f]Evie[/name_f]. I do really love both names though!
As far as your concern about professionalism goes, I’ve had the same hesitation with other names I love (i.e. [name_f]Sunday[/name_f]. 
) I don’t see [name_f]Evie[/name_f] as unprofessional by any means. I definitely think it is sophisticated and works with any age. I absolutely love it!
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps!

I love [name_f]Evie[/name_f]! It gives me such bright, happy vibes! It helps that I know an [name_f]Evie[/name_f], who is the most bubbly, sweet person I know.
Thank you! This is definitely making me feel better about potentially using it. What do you think of having [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] as the full name and her going by [name_f]Evie[/name_f]? I’m considering [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] “Evie”, but am open to suggestions on the middle. [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is lovely, but I don’t think it’s the right one. Versatile, feminine, elegant, yet balances out [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] a little bit is what I’m going for. [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] is a very special name to me and I think [name_f]Evie[/name_f] could modern it up!

It works!
It’s currently a fairly popular name, so she’d be growing up with a whole bunch of Evies - it would fit in just fine
Evie is sweet but sassy, easily very girly, shades of pink and purple, feathers, fur-topped pens, glittery stickers - but also messy hair, climbing trees and laughter
[name_f]Evie[/name_f] is gorgeous!
She’s sweet, pretty, has a soft romance to her and tons of springtime imagery attached. [name_f]Evie[/name_f] is adorable but definitely has an enough strength behind her to work for an adult. I actually know an adult [name_f]Evie[/name_f] who have a very responsible job (she’s a probation officer) and no one raises an eyebrow at her name. Also there is such a wide range of names in use nowadays that [name_f]Evie[/name_f] just wouldn’t raise an eyebrow. She’s great I have [name_f]Evie[/name_f] [name_f]Susanna[/name_f] [name_f]Emerald[/name_f] on my list.
@lilyofthevale I think [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] nn. [name_f]Evie[/name_f] is beautiful and unexpected! [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] is special to you, so if [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] nn. [name_f]Evie[/name_f] doesn’t feel like the right name for you, definitely go with [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f]. Personally, I like [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]. I think the name goes best with another classic name in the middle.
Suggestions:
[name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] [name_f]Faith[/name_f]
[name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] [name_u]Marie[/name_u]
[name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] or [name_f]Elsie[/name_f], or [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] (if you don’t want [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] but still want the same feeling it has.)
I hope this helps!
for vibes and imagery, evie looks like this:
from a practical standpoint, i know a lot of evies. a couple of them are short for evelyn, but most are just evie. quite a few are fully grown adults with jobs. while evie might be a sweet and pretty nickname-name, it’s ubiquitous enough that i wouldn’t question it in a professional or formal setting (i don’t actually think any nickname-name needs to be common to be usable, i just mean i think the average person, at least around me, knows enough evies that they wouldn’t bat an eyelid).
I like [name_f]Evie[/name_f], but I prefer her as a nickname. That said, I have come across a few ‘just Evies’ but they’re all under 10 so it’s hard to tell how well it would age. But as others have said, she’d be part of a generation of Evies and other nicknamey-sounding firsts so it wouldn’t really stick out like it would if you met an adult [name_f]Evie[/name_f] now.
Would it be preferable as a nickname for [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f]? That’s what I’d do if using a full name, as [name_f]Yvonne[/name_f] is a family name.
