What does everyone think of Emma as a baby girl's name? Nice for both young and older child?

People log it on MN and think its a classic...but honestly, i thnk its a bit dated. I grew up in the 80s and there ere about 6 in my year. It was the most common girls name and just seemed very...plain.

I think Emme is nicer. Emmeline even better.

I love the name Emma.

Love it. It was dd3's name for a couple of days before we decided she didn't suit it.

Lovely. Would have used if family not already taken it. Fab for baby or adult and also like the Jane Austen connection.

Gorgeous.

Lovely for a baby and child. (And can always be Emmie if want to be cute!) Teenager can be "Em" if they want a new cool nickname.

Suitable for an adult with a grown up job. (I know a doctor and an accountant who are Emmas and it suits them.)

Very nice. It's a lovely, classic name.
