What's wrong with Amelia or Amelie (French)

I don't want to offend but it sounds silly and made up.

You really wanted a boy called Neil.

My grandmother is called Anelia, she's Hungarian. Very popular name there.

Sounds like 'A kneeler' to me, as in something that you kneel on. It will get confused with Amelia too when written down. Amelie is pretty.

Not a fan. A bit Amelia, a little bit anal. imo.

You've spelt Amelia wrong.

MrsChrisPratt · 08/01/2016 22:23

I'd think the parents couldn't spell...

You can't spell Amelia.

It does remind me of anal, like a pp said.
Is it pronounced like ah-nail-yia or ah-neel-yia, or another way? With the firdt pronunciationi hear "I'll nail ya", which sounds vaguely sexual or violent, I think...

A mixture of Amelia and Anal. Not good.

That you were trying to make 'Amelia' unique. I suspect she would get very, very fed up of saying, "No, not Amelia - it's Anelia" throughout her life.

Agree with above. Abandon.

Another no vote I'm afraid. There are so many prettier names that sound similar. That one though is a bit odd.

I clicked on this thinking the thread title had a typo for 'Amelia.' So that.

It looks like you hit the wrong key when you were typing it, unfortunately.

MississippiMud314 · 09/01/2016 16:54

either a typo for Amelia, if you're lucky, or if you're unlucky and people see that it is Anelia then it's too like Anal.

Thumbs down for all of the above reasons

Out loud it sounds like you've said Amelia whilst you have a cold.

Second all of the anal comments.

Also I'd either think you were a bit thick & couldn't spell Amelia properly or that you wanted some dreadful unique name.

Use Amelie perhaps
