Torn between two girl names...

shterr612 · Apr 5th, 2012, 19:36 PM

Which do you like better? Evelyn or Emilia?

I go back and forth between the two. Evelyn was "my pick" and Emilia was hubby's. I feel at this point like I am about equal between both.

Also... I could use suggestions for possible middle names that would sound nice with either or both.

Boy name is decided: Asher. Just cant choose a middle name. The three I have been tossing around are Edward, Allen or Liam.

Thoughts, opinions and suggestions for all of the above would be appreciated! Thank you in advance!

I love both of your girl names!
I think I would pick Emilia because it means "friendly" in Greek...whereas Evelyn just means "hazlenut" which isn't quite as meaningful. (not bad though)
I also love the name Asher. (it means happy & blessed in Hebrew!)

Emilia Grace?
Could you use your 1st name or mother's name or Grandmother's name as a middle name?

I like Evelyn the most. Asher Allen is a cute name too.

I like emilia for a girl. Id also try and pick a meaningful middle name, mother or grandmothers name etc.
I love the name asher, wish my oh did. I think liam for a middle name, because it sounds better than 2 names beginning with a vowel together.

I do like them both. Emilia could be shortened to Millie - thats that I want to do! Or Evelyn could be shortened to Evie - Which I LOVE but have a family member with that name

Good luck. Whatever you decide will be great! x

I love Evelyn. (Emelia stands to be misspelled a lot.)

Asher Allen sounds great, I think.

Good names!
