Yvonne
What does everyone think of Yvonne? I find it very classy and not overly trendy. Do you like it as part of a sibset that contains Ashwin and Cole?

Not a fan of Yvonne but I guess it goes okay with Ashwin and Cole.

I like Yvonne, indeed I was almost named that. After a childhood friend of my mother's. This girl was French-speaking, and Mum wasn't, but they were little and language didn't matter so much. And Yvonne quickly learned English, Mum didn't learn French, though!

In Sweden an Yvonne is at least 30 years old. Typical "mother's generation name". I find it very boring, sorry.
I think Ashwin and Cole sound way too trendy to pair with Yvonne.

I think Yvonne is very elegant and graceful. Yvonne dresses with the best taste, but not necessarily expensively. She drives a classy car, but it might be an old one, and she takes very good care of it.Yvonne, Cole and Ashwin don't sound like siblings at all.

I love Yvette and would use it in a heartbeat, but Yvonne does nothing for me. It feels downbeat and frumpy.It's okay with Cole but odd with Ashwin.

It seems heavy somehow; I prefer Yvette. Also, an Australian friend has an Yvonne sister and pronounces it EEEvon, which grates.

I think a little Yvonne would fit in with the Eve- craze of today. So would Yvette. Both names invite Yvie as nick names if a nn is wished. I think Yvie is sweet.
It would be great to see a little Yvonne and while I don't think it's an obvious fit for the other two names you mention, it works.
You might consider pairing it with one of today's popular or trending names such as Harper or Thea or Willow if you want to make it more "contemporary", of course. Personally, I don't see the need to go that route, though.

I know 3 Yvonnes and they're all over 60. To me, it's incredibly dated and doesn't fit with trendy Ashwin, sorry.

I love Yvonne's sultry glamour. I don't think it complements Ashwin and Cole particularly well, but the sibset is fine.

I knew a little girl named Yvonne. She'd be in her twenties now. The name is sultry, but I don't care for it because I find it awkward to say.

It's nice. Dated, though. And I've heard people say Yee-von and that turns me off.
I think it might be updated by making it Yvon, or Evonne.I think Yvonne works okay with those brothers. There's no style pattern among them that I can discern, they just seem eclectic.
