Help[Facts] Not really.
in reply to a message by Paula Puddephatt
In languages other than English, Eva is pronounced [EH-va] or [é-va], not [ei-va]. The problem is that English speakers tend to pronounce "é" as the diphtong "ay". Pronouncing Eva as Ava (and conflating the two names) is a strictly English-speaking phenomenon.
