I think I prefer how Amelia looks but the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy is gorgeous helpful

Definitely prefer Emilia - I think it looks nicer. I know that Amelia is a well known and very popular spelling, but it's also the name of a congenital medical condition.

Emilia looks more beautiful.

Amelia. She will forever be saying "Its with an E" everytime shes on the phone etc.

It would drive me bonkers.

Emilia - has more nicknames too - can be a Millie or an Em/Emmie.

Yet another vote for Emilia.

Thanks guys.
They both sound very similar which it's making it hard to decide. I'm veering towards Emilia because it's slightly less popular than Amelia.

Yes I know an Emilia who gets called Emily-a.

Prefer Amelia.

Emilia

Never been too keen on Amelia and it's too popular for me but then again it may get annoying having to correct people if it's Emilia.

Stinkingbagwash · 26/11/2016 15:53

Emilia definitely
