WDYTO Evelina?

I've become bored with Evelyn. Evelia seems like it could become a trendy-ish name like Olivia. Eva is short & sounds too much like the very popular Ava. So, I was thinking about Evelina instead, any opinions, associations?

Also, could you please list Evelyn, Evelia, Eva & Evelina in order from favourite to least favourite?

Thanks!

Evelina is a beautiful name.

I prefer these in this order...
1. Evelyn (Love it.)
2. Evelina (Like it.)
3. Eva (It's okay.)
4. Evelia (Dislike it.)

(My favorite Ev- names are Eve and Evanthe.)

I dislike Evelina because I knew a girl when I was younger with this name and she was...eh...special. But I do like it better than Evelyn and it's actually nice to see it because it's not common.

Favorite to least favorite:
1.Evelina
2.Evelia
3.Eva
4.Evelyn

Eva
Evelyn
Evelina
Evelia

I don't know any Eva's, (Or Ava's for that matter but Eva is nicer) I only know of one Evelyn (and shes awesome) Never heard of the other two either. I find Evelia too hard to say but Evelina is nice. They're all nice actually. I quite like Avaline though.

Evelina is nice. I like that the '-lina' ending makes the name so dramatic. It sounds like a name one of the great poets (Tennyson, Spenser, Byron, et al.) would've used in one of their works.

I really like it, especially compared to my name (Evangeline). I pronounce it ev-uh-lina, how do you pronounce it? I guess it could also be pronounced ev-lina.

Here's my list:
1- Evelyn
2- Evelina
3- Eva
4- Evelia

Yep, I'm pronouncing it as ev-uh-lina

Evelina
Eva
Evelia
Evelyn

I've not been big on Evelyn, just because I'm very bored with -lyn endings. :)

I think Evelina is very pretty, and the only thing I associate it with is my PNL.
