Started the article, based on the format from James. Please edit and improve - I figured there was enough information to warrent it's own article, rather than just do a line in Eva (disambiguation) - To0n Dec. 6th 2005 19:55 UTC

Sanskrit?

[edit]
In Sanskrit the meaning of the name Eva (इवा Ivā) is "one who gives life".

I was skeptical when I saw this: a word with a meaning as complex as life-giver ought to have more than one consonant. So I checked Monier-Williams's huge Sanskrit-English dictionary ... and cut the line. —Tamfang (talk) 07:37, 22 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
