I like this spelling with the "e".
Maude just looks prettier written down.
I think I like for someone else's child. Although it's dated in a slightly stuffy way, it could be ready for a comeback. (I don't actually *predict* a widespread comeback, because its sound isn't fashionable just now. But I think it could work.)
Because it's one- syllable, finding a middle name that flows is difficult, and I don't think
Evangeline does.
Maude Evangelina is better imo.
I think it goes really well with
Iris and
Eli :-)
