Evalyn

This variation draws more from Eva than from Eve, which might lead to pause as to whether it should be said EHV-eh-lin or EEV-eh-lin. While the former is more popular in the US, both pronunciations are in use, so an Evalyn might need to explain.

Evalyn featured in the US Top 1000 back in the early 20th century and then again, albeit briefly. in the 2010s. Now it lags behind the popular Evelyn and the favored variation, Evelynn. Given to around 200 babies in each recent year, Evalyn may see more attention in the future.
