Emmeline. Emma is so boring I almost fell asleep while writing the name Emma...

Emma, lovely classic name, not too popular at the moment. Emmeline ok too but I'd stick to the classic.

Emmeline is the kind of name I imagine one of those creepy porcelain dolls to have. The ones that stare into your soul.

Emmeline and it could be shortened to Emma. Best of both worlds!

bexcee8 · 20/10/2015 13:57

Emmeline which could be shortened if you/she prefers later on
