Evelyn on a boy???
My older sister is expecting her third. She has a girl and a boy already and named them Charlotte (after Charlotte Bronte) and Austen (after Jane Austen) which are two of her favorite authors. Now she is expecting a third. She told me that she wanted to use the name Evelyn (after Evelyn Waugh). Okay. But now it has been confirmed she is having a boy, but today she told me that she is still thinking of sticking with Evelyn since after all Evelyn Waugh was a guy! How can I talk her out of it? She is thinking Evelyn Charles!!!

Couldn't she use something like Devlin instead? It has a similar sound. (nt)  ·  Jörmungandr  ·  5/13/2009, 3:22 AM
