    Back to the drawing board for our girls name

    Hello Everyone,

    I have been fairly sure the whole pregnancy that our baby girl will be called Eva. However, due to language differences DH and I pronounce the name differently.

    I say Eeva and he says Ever!! Now I don't mind Ever but DH doesn't like Eeva. However, when I say Ever I think of the words - "Whatever Ever!! Now my Mum has brought this same issue up and my niece ran around the house the other night saying "Eva whatever"!!!

    So DH and I were discussing other options. We've come up with the name Kasia

    Kasia Eve or Kasia Jewel

    Kasia means pure.

    Any opinions would be lovely thanks

    I knew a Kasia and she was such a beautiful person, definitely like it!
    Eva is much nicer however and I think your DH's pronunciation is just weird!!
    Good luck with the negotiations!

    How about Ava instead?

    I really like Kasia - Eve or Jewel are lovely middle names but I like Eve more

    OMG, I'm so sad

    LOL! I'll get over it though...I just thought Eva was the perfect name for her...

    To be honest, I've never heard Kasia before and I'm not sure if I like it or not...will have to get used to it I think.
