[Opinions] Re: Eva!
My lord...leave the poor little punctuations alone! Eva is a lovely name, said EH-vah or EE-vah. Both are legit but if you live in an English-speaking country you'll get only EE-vah.Evalyn is misspelled, though.

Evalyn is a family spelling...
My great-great Grandma spent a lot of her childhood in the Phillipines and had friends there with the spelling "Evalyn" and took that and put a spin on the family tradition of the Evelyn/Eva name and changed the spelling on my great grandma...
So its not a traditional spelling, but it isn't misspelled.
