Since the visible planets as a class are the brightest things in the sky (after the Sun and Moon), the first object to appear in the evening twilight sky ... referred to historically as the "Evening Star" ... is typically a planet. It can be Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, or Saturn.

However, Venus is usually referred to as the Morning and Evening star.
