[Opinions] Eve or Eva? (more)
Is Eve nice and simple or bland and boring? Which one would you choose, Eva or Eve?If I'd also add Ava and Evelina and Evangeline would you choose differently?Thanks :)

I like both but Eva wins out because I really like -a ending girls namesAnd I wouldn't choose differently because I don't like any of your additional three

Eva for your first question, and Ava for the second.

I don't find Eve bland and boring at all. To me it's nice and simple like you said, but also elegant and beautiful in its simplicity. I also love Eva and go back on forth on which name I love more between the two! Ava, Evelina and Evangeline are all fine too, but Eve and Eva are nicer.

For me - I would usually lean more toward longer names versions to lengthen the formality; yet this automatically & directly facilitates a greater variety of nicknames and diminutives - but I've stated this often recently - that there is little reason that someone formally named Jo (or Joe) could not use the version Josephine or Joseph for formal situations.I do not find anything bland or boring about any of these classic names--and I've no problem for Eve to use Eva (or Ava) as she likes it: or if Evelina, Evelino, Evengeline uses Eva, Evan, (phonetic - Evaleen), Evaline - with long I sound, Angel, Angie, Ann(e), Anna, or Angeline (with a long 'I' or a short 'I').

Eva is a family name; my aunt was sometimes called Eve, though! I prefer Eve, but not enough to use.Ava, Evelina and Evangeline aren't names I'd ever consider for a split second. I might think (briefly!) about Evelyn but I'd be more likely to use Lyneve.
