[Opinions] Everliann or Evangeline
Hey! So we still are unsure what we're having, but if it's a girl, we narrowed our girl names down to:Tatum
Torvi
AlaraI think we are mostly leaning towards Alara, since Tatum is common now days and Torvi is too different. For Alara, we originally wanted Evangeline as the middle name because we both love the name. But my dilemma is that this will be our last child. Our daughter, Zoey Marie, has my husband's mother's middle name. Our son, Jackson Lamont, is named after his father. If we were to honor anyone with baby #3, I'd want to honor my grandmother who adopted me and raised me. Her name is Beverly Ann, so I was thinking maybe Everliann (Everly and Ann combined). Opinions please!Alara Evangeline or Alara Everliann?

What would be bad about actually using Beverly or perhaps Beverlyn as your daughter's middle name?

What about Alara Everly? That’s not a bad combo to honor your grandmother.

Oh another name that might work: Evanna / Evana. An Eve name and an Ann name all in 1.

Evangeline from the title but maybe Everlyann as I like honour names or maybe any Ann name, or Alara Ann or Leanne from ly from Beverly +ann or Annali

Thank you for your reply! Personally, I'm not a fan of Ann, and my stepmother's middle name is Leann, so it would appear to be more of honoring her instead of my grandmother. I did think of that, as well. I appreciate your opinions! I think we may stick with Alara Evangeline. I was just trying out other options!

Alara is definitely the best of those, hands down. In general I like honoring names as a general rule but Everliann feels overly trendy and fake to me (no offense) and I don't see how it would honor Beverly tbh it only marginally resembles Ann. I suggest an Ann name to be the middle like Anneliese, Annabelle, Anastasia, Annabeth, Annora, Annmarie, Annika, Annetta etc. It would work better imo. Evangeline is my favorite female name of all so I'm all for it too but it's up to you what makes the most sense.
