Evva Origin and Meaning

The name Evva is a girl's name of Russian origin.

Evva is a feminine name that likely emerged as a variant spelling of Eva, which derives from the Hebrew name Chava meaning 'life' or 'living one'. The doubled consonant gives the traditional name a distinctive visual appeal while maintaining its classic pronunciation. Evva may also function as a diminutive form of names containing 'ev' elements, such as Evelyn or Genevieve. While not widely used, this spelling variation has a delicate, slightly ornate quality that appeals to parents seeking familiar sounds with unique presentation. The name carries the same warmth and timeless quality as Eva but with a more uncommon spelling that sets it apart without being difficult to pronounce or recognize.
