Bex, I was at school with an Evelyn, almost universally known as Eve, whose name was almost universally pronounced EEVlyn when it had to be. The exception was the headmistress - not the kind of person one could correct! - who made it three syllables EV-uh-lyn.
I don't remember the R sound featuring much in Oz English - I hear nevah, ovah, etc, but that's mostly based on cricket and rugby commentators and my friend's wife. I'm wondering if the Everlyn version might sound like, well, Evelyn in three syllables. Or, is it really just what it looks like? In the US, for instance, I'd expect to hear the R; not here except among Afrikaans speakers.

Eve /Evie/Evelyn is insanely popular here. I know at least 5 or 6 little ones. Theodora has an Evie in her class, in mums group, in music, in swimming nd in dancing!
Evelyn is always EV-uh-lyn here. We are not good at pronouncing our r's. Many people spell names more phonetically liek we pronounce them here which makes them seem rough sounding (I think) like Taylor on girls is almost always Tayla/Taylah now.
