Baby Names

I swear, my friend is a classy girl

But she told me last week that if she and her DH ever had a girl, she would really love to name her Evoleht. She prefaced it with "No one ever likes it, but..."  And I said, "Evelyn? There's nothing wrong with that at all!"  She had to repeat the name about 6 times, AND spell it, before I knew what she was saying. Bad sign #1. Bad sign #2: it's "the love" spelled backwards. *runs away to vomit*  She heard it somewhere and thought it was beautiful.

  • It's the girl in 10,000 BC's name. And I think it sounds pretty, but I cant find a spelling that 'looks' right.

    Yup. But for me it is mostly about that terrible spelling and the fact that it is anything backwards... the sound of it is not bad, honestly. It does, however, sound a lot like Evelyn, as you say.

  • Everything about that name is awful.  It is definitely a red flag if before the baby is even born no one can pronounce the name properly.

  • For some reason I can't see it without seeing "violent."  Which is weird because I don't have the same problem with the name Violet.  I think it's the -eht.

  • Not sure why, but my first thought was it sounded like invalid. I say she should stick with Evelyn, or Violet!

  • Perhaps she could be encouraged to consider Yvette?  Certainly not my favorite name, but at least it's a real name, and it has a similar sound.
