Honest opinions on this name please, my DH suggestion but I am not sure especially about what nn might go with it. I am trying to avoid the very popular Millie.

Melina? Emiliana is a bit too fussy and i usually love those kind if names. It doesn't sound right

I love the sound of Emiliana, just like I love Tatiana or Juliana etc. but I would worry about the nicknames Emmy, Ellie as there are so, so many of them around already.

Sounds fussy and abit silly. Sorry.

I actually like names like this (Juliana, Luciana, Georgiana etc.) and they are real names, but they are a bit much to saddle someone with if one is not actually time-travelling to the 18th century. I think the full version would never actually be used, so there is not much point.

You made this up!!

It's a bit OTT - I prefer Emma, Emilia, Emily, Emmeline.

No, too much, but Eliana is nice and a bona fide name (Hebrew I think). Emilia is OK, but v popular at the moment if you combine all the Amelia variants.

Emilia lovely. Emmeline also lovely. Your DH's suggestion just awful.

emsyj · 29/04/2012 20:26

Love Emilia - but Emiliana sounds too much and reminds me of banana.

LidlVoice · 29/04/2012 20:22

Horrible, sorry. Sounds like you've cobbled two names together to make one.

Sounds like a skin complaint. Sorry.
