HelpRe: Evan (girl)
in reply to a message by Lily
I like Evan on a boy (I remember having a crush on a boy named Evan in elementary school :P)
I like Evana on a girl. I'd like Evan as a tomboyish-type nickname for Evana or Evanna, but not as a full name. "Evan" sounds unisex, but it looks masculine, and spelling it Evyn or Evin or whatever would look too awkward IMO.
I like the sound of Evvy (not the look though. Evi or Evy would look better, although they might looks like they're supposed to be pronounced EE-vee.)
Evanne? That looks like a combination of Eve and Anne... like eev-ANN or something. I have seen a girl Ryanne though (pronounced like Ryan), so maybe. *shrug*

I don't like the look of Evvy either. You're right Evy looks better. I just don't want to put Evanna on her birth certificate because I'd never ever use it anyway. I would give her a feminine middle name, though.
Evanne is kind of pretty but I'd want to say ee-VANN (kind of like Eve+Anne). Maybe for a character. I know a Ryanne too. She also pronounces it like Ryan but before I met her (she was in my class and I got the class list before meeting everyone) I thought it was ry-ANN.
