Writing for a friend. She loves the name Emory but is struggling with a middle name. She was playing around with ‘Emory summer’ but she would like some other options. Also she would like to know if it is spelt better Emery. Any suggestions welcome.

Strike that- I found Emery on BabyCentre, and it does appear that there have been a few Emery's around in the past few years- perhaps not enough to have their own webpages yet.

I think it sounds nice anyway.

Dick?

I hadn't heard of these as names before, so googled- Emory is the name of an American University, and Emery, the first autocomplete is indeed Emery Board. I can't find anyone with this as a first name- Emory has been a last name very occasionally.

That said, I think 'Emory' is quite a nice name! It is similar to Summery though, so not sure about Emory Summer, but if you are going to make up names, this is a lovely one!

Think about what the child/adult will feel about being called emory as an adult. How can they live this down? Give the kid a proper name! A name lasts a lifetime. A name that suits a baby is not necessarily a name that suits a grown up

Damn. My wittiness was tardy

Gammeldragz · 10/01/2018 22:20

Definitely Board. But maybe spelled Bored.

Middle name should be one syllable

Board

biscuitmillionaire · 10/01/2018 22:16

Board?

Dermymc · 10/01/2018 22:15

I first read it as Emroy. Not sure I like it.

TittyGolightly · 10/01/2018 22:14

Emery, surely?

GreyFluffball · 10/01/2018 22:14

I've never heard Emory/Emery as a name. Tbh I think if I heard it I'd assume I'd misheard Emily.
