I LOVE Evie as a nickname for Eve, Eva, Evelyn or Evangeline. It's really horribly cutesy on its own, though.

Surprised no one has mentioned V for Vendetta yet

Evie is the heroine of that movie.

I like it as a nn fine, but not as a proper name. It is very cute, though.

It reminds me of the word 'evil' and I'm not really a fan of nicknames as first names. I suppose it could work as a nickname for Evelyn or Genevieve but I much prefer Eve or Eva :-)

I like it as a nickname but not as a full name, nicknamey names are very popular here in England at the moment,The chart contains loads of this type of name

It's entirely too nickname-y to me, but it seems to be more of a trend in the U.K. (and maybe Australia), but it probably just hasn't hit the U.S. yet. :-/ I like Eve, and Eva, Evangeline and Evelyn are lovely as well, with Evie as a nn even, but not on its own. But I feel the same way about Charlie, Ellie and Millie--they are nicknames, NOT formal names--which are also quite high up on popularity lists in the U.K.

I think Evie is an adorable nick for a name such as Eve, Eva, Evelyn, Genevieve, Evangelina, or Evangeline. Alone it seems a bit childish and limiting, imo.

It reminds me of the character of the same name in the movie Thirteen (who is certainly not someone anybody would want as a role-model for her daughter)

I've seen it as a name on its own as well as as a nickname for Evelyn.

I love Evie as a nickname for Evelyn (that's my 2nd favourite girls name at the moment, Evelyn "Evie") or as a pet form for Eve. I don't really like Evie as a whole name.

I have an aunt named Evelyn we call Evie. It is also a name of a charater in the movie "The Mummy" and "The Mummy Returns".
