Evan stated that she hates her middle name Rachel but that she included it when she was auditioning so that casting directors would not think she was a boy.
Plenty of women and girls have boy names. It's not that insane, and Evan is a nice name. -

Here you go
Evan [evan] as a girls' name (also used more regularly as boys' name Evan) is a Gaelic name, and the meaning of the name Evan is "beautiful; good news". Evan is a version of Eavan (Gaelic): anglicized variant of Aoibheann. Evan is also a derivative of Evangeline (Latin, Greek): Fancy name from evangelium. -

Good citation but still have to say it's an inappropriate name for a girl. Maybe if she lived in Ireland. Here in America, I can only imagine that she took an insane amount of crap for that name growing up and in school.

Yeah I tend to agree' much the same as a scottish girl I went to junior school with called Adrian, but I have to say that with all the shtty names parents come up with these days I'd give a kid a gaelic name before something like Sunday Rose
Kidman
(sounds like sunday roast) or Suri Cruise (sounds like sewerage) -

''It can also be the shortened version of the Greek name "Evangelos" (meaning messenger, or "Evander" (meaning good man). The old English translation of the name "Evan" could also be interpreted as "Heir of the Earth" or "The King". The name is also occasionally given to females, as with actress Evan Rachel Wood''.

I'll ask her Dad next time I see him. It might be worse to name your girl Evans especially if your last name was Evans, but it didn't prevent Evans Evans from landing a role in Bonnie & Clyde and marrying a big time director.
