Evelynn
WDYT about this name. I think it's another variant for Evelyn but it's blend with Eve, Evelyn, and Lynn. Give some opinions. Thanks.

The only justification I can think for giving it another n would be if you truly combined Eve and Lynn, and pronounced the name eev-lin, with two syllables. In that case I would say it would be so much better to write it Eve-Lynn or just Eve Lynn. Either way, if you write it Evelynn, you’re going to have either lifelong spelling problems or pronunciation problems unless you separate the two names.

It simply does not need the second n. looks awkward and sort of cheap

I really don’t get what’s wrong with Evelyn.

I prefer Evelyn

The extra -n does nothing except cause lifelong spelling problems. I can't imagine why it would be worth the effort and tedium.
