I feel like I've done this several times already, but I'm having so much trouble committing.
First name Grace, last name McK, and we want the middle name to start with an E. If Evan had been a girl she would have been Grace Evans McK, but that's out now.

I like Grace Ellie or Grace Evie. I think Evelyn is too close to Evan. I think Edith is a very pretty name, but I don't love it paired with Grace.
Really though I don't think you can go wrong.

I like Grace Evelyn but voted Ellie because I think Evelyn and Evan are a bit too similar

I'm not fond of Evelyn and Edith (although lovely) doesn't sound good as a middle name (to me).
My vote is Elizabeth or something like Eloise

I like Evelyn but it does sound close to Evan. I immediately thought of Eleanor too.

I voted Evelyn because the cadence is so nice, but I agree it's close to Evan. Eleanor would be a good choice.

I love Evelyn! I don't think it matters that it sounds close to Evan since it's the middle name.

I voted Evelyn. Evie and Ellie just feel like nicknames. What about Ella instead of Ellie?

@Mrs. Pickle: @mauxie: @psw27: @Torchwood: @wonderstruck: I think maybe that's what's holding me back? I LOVE the name Evelyn, but it was a no-go as a first name after we had Evan. I'm seriously making myself crazy obsessing over this. I feel like there's this perfect name that I just can't think of...

@lovehoneybee: I don't think it matters at all that it sounds like Evan. First name, yeah, but not for a middle name. And I do love the way it sounds with grace.

My favorite from your list is Evelyn. Also love Elizabeth and Eleanor.

I love Evelyn but agree it's too close to Evan. Same with Evie. Grace Ellie is too close to Grace Kelly for me but otherwise cute.
I like the suggestions of Eleanor or Elizabeth. Maybe Emma? Emily? Esther?

I kind of like the last name-as-first name vibe of Grace Evans. Any other E last names in your family trees? Or male names? I also thought of
Grace Elliot
Grace Ellis
Grace Edward
