Erin Elizabeth is my name....It has such a lovely origin and meaning, plus I didn’t have to be called Erin T. because of all of the others in my class....by the way, my maiden name started with T, so my initials were ET, which ultimately became my nn - so if you are going with this, make sure your last name works well.
GL!

Thanks Erin! Erin Elizabeth is very pretty! It’s good to get input from someone who has the name :) We know a few Erin’s, but not a lot and we like that it’s not super common. My husband and I are both part Irish, and we like the origin as well. Our last name starts with an L, so I don’t think the initials EL will be a problem (unless I’m missing something)

Nope - in that case, use it!!!!
I love the name and hope to pass it down as it was passed to me - My g-grandmother was Erin Fitzgerald (just a bit Irish huh?)...they pronounced it different....Eer-in...so everyone on that side of my fam calls me that, but I got used to it...if you have some older Irish family members you might run into this, but otherwise I can’t think of anything else - except having to spell it out, which is never a bother:)
Best Wishes!

Hmm I’ve never heard it pronounced Eer-in, but I suppose we could run into that with some older family members. My name is Kelley (also Irish!), so I know what it’s like to have to spell a name out, since everyone spells it Kelly, haha! Thanks so much for the advice, Erin! You’ve really helped make our decision easier.

I really love both Erin and Eva. Lillian and Lilly are too common IMO.

I wouldn’t use Erin Elizabeth, because that is in the book & show Clifford the big dog series

I like all the names, but I would vote for Eva or Erin. I agree that Lily has gotten so popular. We have friends with two dtrs Erin and Ashley which I do think go very nicely together. Emily (not Erin) Elizabeth is from the Clifford Series.
