Evangeline and Evening don't feel the same to me at all. Evangeline seems classic and easy to relate to. Evening feels more new and whimsical. I toggle with Evening: one minute she'd wearing a full-length open-back black gown at a gala. The next she's bratty and annoying as she giggles with Trinity and Destiny. I want her to be the first, but I'm just not sure.

I think I'd dislike being named Evening, just because of the comments every single time I introduce myself.

---

Parents: again, I'm waffling back and forth on whether they are sophisticated or a bit downmarket.

Combos:
Evening Gown - just kidding
I'm liking something like
Evening Corinne
Evening Brielle
Evening Narelle
Evening Lorelle

I like Evening a lot, but I think it's definitely at least verging on guilty pleasure territory. However, it can easily be shortened to Eve or Evie, which makes it somewhat usable. I wouldn't mind being named Evening, and I wouldn't think anything negative about an Evening's parents because I think it's a cool name. I think it needs to be paired with a much more usable/"normal" name, to give her something to fall back on if she doesn't like Evening.

Have you thought about Evadne? :)

I'd be fine with being named Evening. It's one of my favorite word names, actually - mostly because I like the "Ev."

---

I'd say they're much better than parents who named their daughter Kayleigh. ;)

Evening Lenore, Evening Nyx, Evening Simone, Evening Virginia, Evening Violet, Evening Willow

I like Evening, and wouldn't mind having it as a name. I'd guess that Evening's parents like things that aren't too ordinary and are into the arts.

---

Evening Simone, Evening Clara, and Evening Claire come to mind in terms of combos. I also really like Evening Melisande.

I would go by Eve if my name was Evening.
I would think the parents were interesting, and unique
I would use a really common name for a middle because it's so out there

Evening Chloe
Evening Madison
Evening Rachel
Evening Isabella
Evening Claire
Evening Sarah

1. If I was named Evening, I think I would feel like I would have to explain myself to everyone. I would probably shorten it to Eve to avoid the conversation.
2. I would think the parent's of Evening were out of the box, free spirit, hippy types.
3. Evening Rose?

Eh, too hippie-dippie for my taste. Also, it reminds me of a bit of douching because of Summer's Eve (yet, the name Eve does not...strange, isn't it?).
