Which of these do you prefer and why? I love both and am being (typically!) indecisive!

I've always loved Martha, I've never known an elderly one but I met a twenty-something one a few years ago and she was fab.

Emma is a classic, but very over-used a few years ago.

Emma. Traditional and classy.
Martha is another of these dreadful try-too-hard granny chic names.

Martha.

It has more character and style.

Emma is classic and safe (and imo a bit boring)
