My Baby Girl
written by Naila, January 30, 2008
I had twins on January 9th, and my husband and I named them Evelyn & Keiran. We're both Irish, my grandparents lived there and my parents were born there, and we really wanted names fitting to our heritage.
I absolutely love the name Evelyn, it suits my daughter perfectly.

FOR SHORT??
written by I love my Riley!, February 21, 2008
Evelyn has always been my favorite name for a girl! What could you call her for short? Evi??? But is it weird to spell it that way if there is no "i" in Evelyn? I have a son named Riley, and we call him "Ri". But that makes sense because it is the first to letters in his name.

I love this name...I named my daughter this. We call her Evie..Which is super cute for when she is a girl, but when she gets older she can have a wonderfully grown-up name in Evelyn.I love the way it sounds.
i love it.

triple twin girls
written by frogs are cute, April 26, 2008
My mother when she had me i was a twin. My twin was Evelyn-Mae and I was **********-Rae (its not that long.). My sisters nickname was Evin and now she's gonna be Tia Eva. The weird thing was Evelyn had twins: Aeropostalia and Hollystirre like the companies except spelled difrently (they were both girls). And now I will have twin girls! Weird, huh!
Talkin' about those companies, I'm gonna go buy some of that stuff tomorrow. They are the only kinds of clothes i wear.
