Re: Evangeline
in reply to a message by Sharon-Lynn
My mother had a friend named Evangeline; a very nice person, but her nn was Vangie, which has put me off the name for life. It might be safe to use as a mn, but even then I couldn't imagine taking the risk.

I think most people's instinct is to go for Eve/Evie/Eva from what I have seen of real life Evangelines and Evangeline moms online.
