Ava as nickname????

NicoleWI

Are there any long names you can think of that could be nicknamed Ava? I suddenly like this name. And, of course, I look and it's number 5 on the SS list! Every girl name I like seems to be incredibly popular.

I tried "names containing ava" and "eva" on babynamewizard and didn't get anything, really. It did pull up Savannah which we also have on our list, but b/c the sound of the "ava" is different I don't know that it makes sense to name the baby Savannah but use Ava.

I like having a longer option if there is one, even if we always use the NN.  DD is Katherine, and goes by Katie.

I have a girlfriend who named her daughter Avanna Leigh and she goes by Ava. It is pronounced like Havana without the H (which of course rhymes with Savannah)... I think it's ok. Just think of Bobby and Bill!

Long names for Eva could be Evalyn, Evelin (not sure how to spell those), or Evangeline.

Aviana.  I like the name Ava and looked it up to find that it is a nickname for Aviana, which I also like. : )

I like the thought of Savannah nn Ava (although its not the usual, it could work), I think it works really well with Katherine/Katie.
