What do you think about the name Yve? I find it much more beautiful than the traditional [name]Eve[/name]. [name]Eve[/name] is all bible, while Yve is chic and french to my eyes.
Too confusing?
I want to say it “yeeve”.
Idk, it doesn’t feel like a name to me, it’s very much nms.
Yes too confusing. It looks like [name]Ives[/name] without the S so I’d pronounce it “eyev” (like I’ve). It could also be mistaken for “eye-vee”
It looks like [name]Yves[/name] mispelled to me, it also feels masculine and old fashioned to me because it reminds me of [name]Yves[/name] but I like the sound of it if you’re saying it like [name]Eve[/name]
Honestly, I think [name]Eve[/name] looks much nicer.
I just want to say yeeve. And I’m the same way with [name]Yves[/name], [name]Yvonne[/name], and [name]Yvette[/name]. I just want to say that Y! It doesn’t help that I had a friend name [name]Yvonne[/name] who did say the Y. And I was an adult and knew better, but that’s how she said it. I do not find it attractive at all.
As above all I want to say is yeeve.
At first I thought it was a weird spelling of [name]Ivy[/name]. I would stick with [name]Eve[/name].
I agree- It just looks like someone forgot the ‘s’ to me
I realized right away what you were aiming for, but i’m not sure it works well in real life, kwim? in French, [name]Yves[/name] sounds like [name]Eve[/name], but it’s a male name; this sort of looks like the s was accidentally left off of [name]Yves[/name].
This is what I was just getting ready to say. I’d stick with [name]Eve[/name].
This is what I was about to say. I’d just stick with [name]Eve[/name], it’s a beautiful name :).
I think it’s beautiful, but it’s not going to be popular.
I like it & totally agree with your take of being chic, rather than biblical, but in reality it would probably be annoyingly misspelt & mis pronounced a lot of the time.
I think I would even prefer [name]Yves[/name] on a girl over Yve. Yve is just confusing.
I personally don’t think a name like [name]Eve[/name] needs to be messed around with since it’s simplicity makes it chic.
Yve reads as a misspelled attempt at sounding designer/luxury/fancy imo. Her brother could be Vouittone.
I agree. I much prefer [name]Eve[/name] personally–it’s just so much more straightforward and simple. More streamlined, imo. Then again, I’m biased… [name]Eve[/name] nn [name]Evie[/name] is a serious contender for my short list at this point…
I completely disagree with “[name]Eve[/name] is all bible, while Yve is chic and french.” Yve, outside of a French speaking context, is trying too hard. It comes across as very goofy and pretentious. If I were to ascribe the word “chic” to either of them, it would definitely be [name]Eve[/name].
[name]Yvaine[/name] is a somewhat interesting literary name if you’re bold enough. To me it kind of feels dated because of [name]Yvonne[/name] and [name]Elaine[/name], and it will not be known to non-name nerds (but neither would Yve), but it’s also pretty. [name]Yvaine[/name] nn Yve or Yvie would be OK to me, but just Yve is very confusing to me. While I’m conservative in my own taste, I’m pretty accepting for others’ choices, but this just seems really headache-y.
I like Yve, for the reasons you described, and I would definitely pronounce it “[name]Eve[/name].” You’re right on! Nothing confusing at all…
