I love Avery.

Clementine is ok but it's too orangey for me.

Avery make scales and are/were a hire car company.

Not Avery.

I hope your surname is not label Grin

I love them both. I would not use either of the nicknames you like though.

If you want to call her Ava then call her Ava and forget Avery.

And in school a Clementine will be Clemmie. If you want Em or Emmie then call her Emma, Emmeline or Emily.

Reminds me of oranges or aviaries

Definitely Clementine out of the two names. The only Avery I know is a boy.

Clementine! Have known a few and it is gorgeous!

Clementine. Isn't Avery a type of printer label?

curiousgeorgie · 27/02/2014 16:59

I love them both..

You could have Clementine Avery?

Clementine is very pretty. Avery I like but did you know it is often used for boys (a character in 'Nashville')? Does sound more feminine to me though. So I would go with Clementine.

Clementine. It's gorgeous.

Avery is horrible. Masculine and American.
