I pronounce it EV-uh-lin. It's one of my favorites too. I'd use the nickname Evie (ee-vee, like the Pokémon). :)

Me too

I've only heard it pronounced EV-uh-lin. I love Evie and Eve as nn's, but you could always use Lyn.

Me too

And I like the nicknames Eve (EEV) or Evie (EE-vee).

Add another ditto to the pile.

I love it on both a boy and girl. Evie is adorable, and I think I kinda like just E too.

EV-uh-lin, nicknamed EE-vee.

Well, nn Evie on a girl. Probably no nickname on a guy. It's hard to get a masculine nickname out of Evelyn. Lyn is technically, but I think it sounds even girlier than Evelyn. And the only reason I went on this tangent is because Evelyn (m) is on my PNL, but I probably wouldn't use it.

Anyway...EV-uh-lin.

I've only ever heard it prn with 3 syllables...(m)

as EV-uh-lin. I much prefer it over the 2 syllable prns, which I've never heard used. I love the nn Evie :)

Although I like the Evey spelling. :-)
