I think you put it in very accurate words

Yeah, exactly ;)
Plus, it sounds masculine to me. Probably because it somehow looks/sounds like Kevin.

Sounds to me like either a) they wanted/thought they were having a boy, and so had their hearts set on Kevin and decided to feminize it; or b) they wanted to honor someone named Kevin and this was the best they came up with. Either way: lame.

Along those lines, I knew a woman once named Royce - she was named after her father, Roy. I think it's a ridiculously stupid name.

Don't like it. It sounds like Kevin+Evelyn, and I'm not even a huge fan of either of those names, but this is worse.

My first thought was, "Someone mistyped Kelvin."
