User Comments about the name Ava


Comment left Jul 02, 2009: "I agree with the below. When picking our daughter's name, I always knew (since highschool-over 10 years ago) that I loved the name Ava- thanks to Reese & Ryan and Heather & Richie! So, when we had our daughter April 2008 I chose the name, still believing it wasn't that poplar...low and behold this name has skyrocketed here in Canada, so many Avas. But...I still love the name, so beautiful, classy and simple. Our daughter is absolutely beautiful, I have never seen an ugly Ava! LOL." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jul 02, 2009: "my name is ava marie and i only know of about 2 other avas in my area.And i thnk you shuld name your daughters ava because i always get complimented on how pretty my name is.just a tip" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jun 28, 2009: "I am naming my daughter Ava (to be born within the next 3 weeks), but am so disappointed in the popularity of the name! I am just hoping that I get lucky, and that she is in elementary classes that don't happen to have five other Ava's!" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jun 22, 2009: "I named my daughter Ava and I think it is an elegant and classy name and I hope she likes it when she grows up. I live in England and the name is not as popular as it is in Amercia but it wouldn't have bothered me or influenced my decision. The fact it is so popular proves what a beautiful name it is!" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Jun 14, 2009: "Ava is a pretty name. That is first-choice if my unborn is a girl." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left May 28, 2009: "I am a mother of two kids and when we picked out our names we wanted something unique for each. Although we thought Jaden an Ava were uncommon, the next thing we knew, they were everywhere. Just our luck..." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left May 16, 2009: "Ava has been one of my favorites since I started thinking about what I will name my children as a teen (in the mid 90's). At that point, Ava was still an uncommon old fashioned name. I must have been psychic, because since then it's popularity has soared, and that aspect of it has put it off my own personal list. All the girls I grew up with were named Jennifer, Amber, and Lindsey and the teachers had to call them Jennifer A, Jennifer B, Jen, and Jenny. Ava will likely follow suit in being one that requires a last initial in class. It will still be a beautiful name, but it will not be a name that precedes or defines them, they will have to carve out their own path because so many other girls will be named this as well." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Apr 15, 2009: "I have always loved this name, and it really annoys me how bloody popular it is! hopefully its popularity will die down soon (probably be replaced by olivia), i dont want this name to become the next emma and just have lots of under 5 Avas in the classes at school!" (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Oct 29, 2008: "I plan to name my first girl Ava. I think that the name Ava is still very unique and distinct. To me Ava sounds sophisticated and lovely. What a beautiful and strong name." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Oct 21, 2008: "all the sudden parents are coming up with these radical names. why cant we all just stick with the traditional kinds. do we all need to make something better and more unique? soon this name will be one of the common old names so whats the point?" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Aug 23, 2008: "Our baby girl was just born today, I love the name Ava, it's very elegant, classy and strong. Our son is 2 yrs old and we named him Oscar. I have never met anyone named Ava or Oscar, and until I read this webpage had no idea it was a popular name for a girl. It matters very little because she's beautiful and the name is perfect for her. Hell, my name is Mark and I could care less, how many Mark's have you met in your lifetime?" (Report as inappropriate)
