What is the meaning of the name Evie ?

The baby name Evie is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈiːvi/ (EE-vee); also /ˈɛvi/ (EV-ee).

Evie is Latin in Origin.

Evie (EE-vee) is an English diminutive used for several given names, most often Eve and Eva, but also Evelyn and Evangeline. Its meaning depends on the root: from Eve/Eva it reflects the Hebrew Chava, “life” or “living”; from Evangeline (Greek eu + angelion) it conveys “good news” or “bearer of good news.” Linked to Evelyn, ultimately from Norman French Aveline of Germanic origin, the sense is debated, sometimes glossed as “desired” or associated with “hazel.” Today Evie also stands as an independent name.

Attested in Britain since the 18th–19th centuries as a familiar form, Evie gained favor in the Victorian era and has surged again in the 21st century - ranking highly in England & Wales and Australia - and rising steadily in the United States. Variants include Evy, Evi, Evey, and Evee; related longer forms are Eve, Eva, Evelyn, and Evangeline.
