Help[Opinions] Evening
The name Evening has been on my mind alot lately. I love Evangeline but dislike it's gaining popularity... Evening has a similar feeling to it but is far less used....
I like it but I can't figure out if I like it to use IRL.
How would you like being named Evening?
What would you think of parents who named thier daughter Evening?
If you were going to use it in a combo, what would you pair it with?
Thanks for the input!

I like Evening, and wouldn't mind having it as a name. I'd guess that Evening's parents like things that aren't too ordinary and are into the arts.
Evening Simone, Evening Clara, and Evening Claire come to mind in terms of combos. I also really like Evening Melisande.

Evangeline and Evening don't feel the same to me at all. Evangeline seems classic and easy to relate to. Evening feels more new and whimsical. I toggle with Evening: one minute she'd wearing a full-length open-back black gown at a gala. The next she's bratty and annoying as she giggles with Trinity and Destiny. I want her to be the first, but I'm just not sure.
I think I'd dislike being named Evening, just because of the comments every single time I introduce myself.
Parents: again, I'm waffling back and forth on whether they are sophisticated or a bit downmarket.
Combos:
Evening Gown - just kidding
I'm liking something like
Evening Corinne
Evening Brielle
Evening Narelle
Evening Lorelle

That's interesting that the term "hippie" has come up more than once in regards to the name Evening. I've never thought of it that way despite it being a nature name. I could certainly see an author or free-spirited artist of some sort using it, but not a hippie per se. I guess maybe my impression of the name just differs here.

I don't see hippie either. Evening seems so....sleek or adult or something... not hippie at all to me.

I get the sleek, adult impression as well. There's definitely something refined about it. Hippie names tend to be more playful and less mature sounding than Evening, so that's why I don't see it as hippie. I can't imagine the hippies I've met using Evening.

I like Evening a lot, but I think it's definitely at least verging on guilty pleasure territory. However, it can easily be shortened to Eve or Evie, which makes it somewhat usable. I wouldn't mind being named Evening, and I wouldn't think anything negative about an Evening's parents because I think it's a cool name. I think it needs to be paired with a much more usable/"normal" name, to give her something to fall back on if she doesn't like Evening.

Have you thought about Evadne? :)
I'd be fine with being named Evening. It's one of my favorite word names, actually - mostly because I like the "Ev."
I'd say they're much better than parents who named their daughter Kayleigh. ;)
Evening Lenore, Evening Nyx, Evening Simone, Evening Virginia, Evening Violet, Evening Willow
