From very early on in this pregnancy the name Eva has been placed before me in all sorts of situations. For example the blood test lady was Eva, I have seen the name on a car number plate, news articles/books I have read have had the name Eva as well. Plus DD loves the name from the Walle (sp?) movie.
Problem is my DH and I pronounce the name differently. DH and his family (who are Polish) pronounce the name E-va (like Ever) and my side who are Aussie pronounce the name Eeva. I don't mind either way but I am trying to get through to Dh that she'll probably be called the Aussie way and I don't want her having to correct ppl all the time iykwim. He seems to think that the Polish way is the only way....grrr and he'll correct ppl if they are wrong.
So what do I do? Go for another name...but what ?? I love the meaning of Eva - means Life. Plus I think it goes with my other girls Sara and Loren. On the otherhand I have the Skyhooks song Evie going through my head too when I think of the name
