How Eva sounds
A two-syllable name, Eva has a steady beat that sits well with a one- or two-syllable surname. The name Eva trails off on a vowel, a gentle ending that carries well when called out. Its whispery consonants make Eva sound like air to the ear. Eva has held a steady place in U.S. birth records, neither a fad nor a rarity. Most people named Eva in U.S. birth records are girls.
The Saju view
Because Eva begins with a vowel, H, W or Y, the system counts its first sound as earth, and the first sound weighs double. Names that sound like Eva are filed under earth. When a birth chart runs low on earth, a name like this is read as adding what is missing. In the cycle where each element nourishes the next, earth gives rise to metal, so Eva earns some credit for charts missing metal. A chart that already holds plenty of earth is better served by another name, since Eva would add to it.

The astrology view
In astrology an air-sounding name like Eva is a close match for Gemini, Libra and Aquarius, and a supportive one for Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. Charts led by earth and water signs hear the air sound of Eva as a contrast, so it ranks lower there.
