Hi

I saw your other post- I think the granddad in question was Everardus? Why not just drop the 'us'- Niels Everard. I like that (Evert...i kinda read it as 'pervert'...but then i'm dyslexic).

Do you still have people in Your family that Speak any Scandinavian languages?


Niels/Nils is a good name but Evert is a name that isn't so popular and often joked about here in Sweden.


Do you have any other names from you family?


Edvin is a good alternative to Evert.

Is it Evert or pronounced "ee"vert? I like the name, plus you can also get creative and use Everett.
