I first read this name in the book "Helen of Troy", and I loved it right away. Evadne is a beautiful, feminine name with a lyrical quality to it. Very pretty and unique.

I think this is a really cool name. I have a friend who has several cousins with this name, and she actually bears a modern, Anglicized variation of the name: Evanthia. I don't know if it's common in Greece but several members of her family, going back generations have the names Evanthia or Evadne. Very unique and pretty.

It has a really depressive origin, but it's a great name. The spelling reminds me of Evangeline, which reminds me of Nanny McPhee, which is a cute movie.
