Emily or Emilie?

[cupcake78]

Which spelling. She would be known as Milly/Millie to the family.

[MagicBaguette]

I personally love Emilie, but I feel the majority on here will prefer Emily!

Millie is one of my favourite names.

[VBisme]

Emily, I misread Emilie as Emile, and would assume a boy.

[toffeelolly]

Emile love it. Millie is also one of my favorite names

[MolotovCocktail]

Emily, as Emilie looks too much like Emile.

[curlew]

Why on earth would you spell a name in a way that will mean she will have to correct people all her life? Everyone will assume Emily.

[Iseeall]

Emily.

If you want to call her Milly use that, or Millicent, with the nn Milly.

But I do like Emily, Milly, , and Millicent.

[EspressoMonkey]

Emilie, i love French names! Emilie is DD's best friend but i have to prounounce it Emeeeeeeleeeeeee otherwise DD tells me off for being an embarrasing foreigner.

[CPtart]

Emily.
Millie is one of my most hated names....but Emily is lovely.

[Scruffey]

Emily.
Emilie is French. Assuming you are not French/in France, use Emily.

[Ihatepeas]

Emily. She will be forever correcting people otherwise.
Gorgeous name.. love it shortened to Milly!

[Alisvolatpropiis]

Emily.

Makes life easier to go with the standard spelling of the country you live in.

[cupcake78]

Well that's fairly unanimous . Thank you

[BumbleBee2011]

I'd use Emilie but my family are French (I'm therefore used to having to explain/spell out my own name all the time too)...in fact that was our main contender for DD2 but DH's cousin had an Amelia a few months ahead of us and we thought that would be too close.

[Bluestocking]

Emily, unless you live in a Francophone country. And why shorten it to Milly? Emily is a much nicer name!

[RaRaZ]

Emily - but if you want to call her Milly, why not just call her Milly and not have the 'formal' name of Emily? ...though, like a couple of others, I prefer Emily anyway.

[exoticfruits]

Emily- if you live in UK.

[DorisIsWaiting]

I have an Emily nn Milly I'm obviously biased but really dislike your alternative spelling.

[acheekyvimto]

Another with an Emily. She has no problem with people spelling her name.

I'm glad I took leave of my senses, my 21 year old self wanted to call her Emmie- Leigh.

[DramaAlpaca]

Emily.

[Blanketsandpillows]

Emily.

[IsThisAGoodIdea]

Emily.

[bugsybill]

Emily.

Emilie looks too much like the (less commonly used) boys name Emile.

[cupcake78]

I think it might be Emily then
