Evangeline...
What are your thoughts on this name? What do you think about the combo Evangeline Pamela. Pamela is my mother's name and I would probably call her Eva. Siblings are Matteo & Stella.

I don't like Evangeline at all BUT it does fit with siblings. Pamela is an ok name. I think it could be due for a comeback in the future.

I prefer Eva as a standalone name, plus I think Eva fits better with siblings Matteo and Stella. Above all though I love Eve; her simplicity is just stunningly beautiful in my opinion.
What about Evelyn or Evelina instead?

I like Eva much better, and think it fits better with her sibs, and also with Pamela.

Matteo, Stella and Evangeline fit really nicely. Eva is a great nn, I adore it.

I don't like it because it is so much like the common word evangelism, I can't help but assume it was used in honor of that concept. So I don't think it goes very well with Matteo and Stella. Anyway both those are very Latiny and Evangeline's very not. Evangelina would go better. but I think it's not important, matching sibs.All that aside, it's a good combo with Pamela.

Pronounced with a -leen or a -line sound at the end? I'm partial to the -line ending. I love it, I think it's beautiful. It's not a name you hear everyday but it's not so uncommon people would raise an eyebrow. It's classic and understated with a touch of elegance. It works well with Matteo and Stella.I think Pamela makes is sound clunky and overbalanced. I just don't like it.
