[Opinions] Re: Evanna ETA
in reply to a message by mirfak
ee-VANN-eh
Seems kind of....manufactured, I guess? Like someone just wanted to stick "anna" on Eve. It's not terrible, but I don't love it. I'd rate it 5.
I'd expect to see siblings of Evanna be called Beverly, Nancy, and Kenyon. I'm saying this because the only real life example I've seen, except with a slight spelling difference, was Eveanna Clutter, of the "In Cold Blood" murders, and those were her siblings' names. Otherwise, I'd skip this question entirely.
I like Evanna more than Vanna.
I like Evan, dislike Anna, and like Eve.
As a female, I'd much rather be named Evanna than Evan. But would rather be named Eve than Evanna.
I edited this because I realized that I'd transcribed my pronunciation of the name incorrectly. No big deal, and probably nobody cares, but it takes a minute at most so why not.
