[Opinions] WDYT of Eve?
I've always liked Evie as a nn but have never really been too fussed over any full names for it. Recently Eve has been growing on me though.Opinions?Any combo suggestions?How does it fit with my other top names- Ruby, Penelope, Vivienne, Finn, Oliver and Isaac

Eve "Evie" is great. I would consider this name in the future if I was to have a DD. I think it fits nicely with your other names, although I wouldn't use Eve "Evie" and Vivienne in the same sib set, as they sound a little similar to me.

I find Eve disappointing. I'd like to like it because of my friend Evelyn, who always goes by Eve, but all I can think of is Cockney pirates: "Aaarrgghh! "Eave 'o, me 'earties!" which is not encouraging. And I don't remotely like Eva (it's a family name doomed to extinction!) or Evelyn or Evangeline or Genevieve. It fits well with the retro feel of your other top choices, but they're all getting popular so it should continue to fit well!

I love Eve it's a simple but strong name. I like the combo Penelope Eve best.
Pesonally the combo Aurora Eve is one of my great favorites. I like the little tang of irony.

I adore Eve much more so than Eva. In fact, I'd use it if my surname also didn't have one syllable. As it is, Eve is one of my favorites for the middle name spot. I think it suits your other names quite nicely. Re: combos, Eve would complement a variety of names. I won't make a list here except to say my favorite combo is Eve Juliet which I think is just regal and stunning in its simplicity.

I like Evie as a nickname too. I don't like Eve quite as much, but it's still okay.I'm feeling uninspired at the moment so no combo ideas. :/I think Eve goes well with your other top names.

I'm usually not really into frilly kind of names but they do sound nice with Eve. I adore Eve Matilda.Eve Magdalena is beautiful but Magdalena is too overtly Catholic for me to consider using unfortunatelyThanks!

I used to only like it as a middle name, but it has grown on me as a first name also. Simple, yet sophisticated. :)

I think Evie is a cute nickname. I prefer Evelyn & Evangeline as first names and Eve as a middle name. I don't know... to me Eve has almost a harshness to it.
It does have a classic timeless feel to it though. I like Eve in a sibset with Ruby, Penelope, Finn and/or Isaac.

I think it's beautiful.I'm not great at combos, prefer to use family names. But, taking a quick peek at your name list (turns out we have quite similar tastes in names), from those I would make these combos-Eve Mahalia (my favourite)
Eve Lucinda
Eve Keziah
Eve Tullia
Eve RosalieI think it works best with a longer, 3+ syllable middle name, especially well with those ending in "a".I think it "fits" fine with your other top picks =)

Eve Mahalia is beautiful but I'm always in two minds about Mahalia- it is aesthetically beautiful but it doesn't have a great meaning :-(Eve Lucinda is stunning! Thank you!

I love Eve!! I previously preferred Eva but feared it may be to popular for my tastes so I've converted to an Eve lover :)Eve Danica, Eve Meredith and Eve Amaryllis are all on my personal list

I like Eve a lot. It's simple yet elegant, understated yet beautiful, and grievously underused.

It's a beautiful, solid name, and reminds me of a pure woman. Of the names you listed, I think it fits better with Ruby, Oliver and Issac, although I don't think it's a bad fit with the others. I think it would go well with a French middle name, like Camille, Cerise or Corinne.
