Help[Opinions] Re: Evolet, Evoleht
in reply to a message by Amandine
It borrows some appeal from being a mixture of Violet and Evelyn, and from being novel - but it's just not quite pretty. It leaves me pretty cold. I might propose it as the brand-name for a new design of composting toilet.
That said ... it doesn't offend me and if I met someone named Evolet I wouldn't really bat an eye. It's like Novalee or Everly or Oaklynn, a modern invention that is pretty bland and fashionable. I guess it has more of an "upscale" sound-style, though, doesn't come off so "trendy" ... like a moodier, more dramatic aesthetic.
Evoleht looks bad to me - the h doesn't change the prn, looks like a weird error.
Evoleth is confusing to me if it's pronounced ev-o-let and not -leth.
