I’ve only met one other Evie ever but I think there’s another girl in my school called Evie too ( my school has roughly 2000 people in it tho so that’s not too bad) it’s never spelt wrong by people even though I’ve seen other spellings when researching my name. I have a friend who likes pokemon a lot and there’s an eevee in Pokemon which she talks about sometimes but I don’t mind and thinks it cool. Evie seems like it would be popular and plain but I like it and think it’s not.
