This is what we are using for our girl name!!! Same spelling!!! I love it! First I wanted to just use Ever, but my middle name is Leigh so I thought it would be pretty to add that and Ever can still be a NN.
We haven't told anyone our name yet because I didn't want to hear any critisism, so it's nice to finally announce on here!
Have you thought of any middle names that would go with it, I am having a hard time because I think it will need to be one sylible.
I think it is really pretty! Although when introducing her to people they may think you say beverly since that is more common. Just wanted you to think about that:)
I don't like it. It looks made up to me.
Everleigh I'd pronounce Ever-lay and Everly I'd pronounce Ever-lee. I'm
not sure which you are going for.
Leigh= Lay to you? I've never known a single person with Leigh in their name that pronounce it Lay. I know several girls who are just Leigh and it's pronounced Lee.
How do you pronounce Haleigh, Ashleigh, Kayleigh, etc.?

Leigh looks like lay because of the word sleigh, which is pronounced slay. You don't say slee.?
I've never met a Haleigh, Ashleigh or Kayleigh before. Those just look like misspellings of Halle, Ashley and Kaylee. The reason why I can distinguish these names are because they are familiar. I've never heard of Everleigh or Everly IRL. I also don't know anyone named Leigh. It's not familiar to me.?
I like it. I have also seen it spelt Everly. Personally I like the longer version. I do agree that it would go well with a short mn, like Rose, Claire, Paige, Ruth, Renee, Jane, Jean, Brooke, Kate, Faith, and Grace. Then again, it depends on your last name.

I really like it. And not made up, I saw it in our baby name book, too.
And, for the record, Leigh is always pronounced like Lee. It's not an uncommon name on its own or as part of a longer name.
