WDYT of this name?

I was filling a shelf in the shop I work at and overheard a woman call her daughter over to her. The daughter's name was Evangeline, pronounced Ee-van-jel-een. I don't like it, personally.

That isn't exactly how I would pronounce it, but that's probably just a small difference in phonetic spellings.

Evangeline is actually a fairly popular/common name, and has been for awhile. I think it's really pretty, and I would use it. It's quite high on my list of baby names, but I have it filed under Middle Names.

Everything she said, +1.

I really like Evangeline. It is classic and lovely and relatively uncommon, at least compared to the all the Kaylees and Jaydens out there.
