    I think it goes great together, what about a variation on the name like E.va or E.vie.

    I agree I love the A name and the E name, but not together.

    Not "nature-y", exactly, it just sounds a little odd to my ears, if that makes sense? I don't really think any names that also can denote a period of time should have that middle name. The other middle name sounds lovely though I'd probably have the long version of that, but either way sounds nice.

    Thank you so much for your replies!!

    We adore the E name but i do agree with all of you that the other name is probably better suited! He didn't like E.vie or E.va unfortunately!

    I know sisters called summer and storm, I always find it weird. Does she yell out summer storm it's dinner time.... I think I'd have the E name with the G name as the middle name.....

    Haha they must have been x-men fans for storm!

    We are pretty set on the first name, it's the only name we both have 100% agreed on! We like the middle names equally but not as much as the first.

    Not just X-Men. My Storm's name had nowt to do with X-Men.

    Although Summers wasn't ever my fave X-Man. (It's Patrick Stewart. I'm still sending speculative applications to his school.)

    The a and the e name roll off the tongue the best. It's only when you think of the meanings you question it

    Agree... Just wondering how many people would question it and I don't want her to have a name people would say "they called her what?"

    I think A E sounds odd because its a real phrase, eg, I went walking one A.. E... . Even if you never string it together like that, other people will. A bit like the "Sunday Roast" effect that Nicole kidman's daughter had.

    I love one of the full versions of the G second name- G. wendolyn.

    For more vowel type names with V how about, Evelyn, Ava, Ever...

    I like the A and E names but do think they sound a little odd together. That being said, how often would both actually be said together??

    Tough one. I like A E over A G but it does sound a little odd when said together.

    I do prefer the longer version of the G name too myself but as A is a mid sized name, is a bit much.

    GL choosing whichever way you go!

    Re: Does this sound weird?

    Thanks everyone! We love the long version of G too - but we have a REALLY long surname, like 11 letters, so it would be massive to write out! Trying to stick to a short middle name so she doesn't hate us in the future lol.

    We decided today that although E sounds better, we have decided on G instead!

    Thank you all so much for your honesty!
