I love Emily, I think it’s a beautiful name but I’m slightly concerned about it possibly sounding dated on a baby now? I know it was at its peak in the late 90s/00s and the ons says it was number 1 in 2003 & 2004 in the UK and it’s now number 28, so certainly not uncommon but I suspect it’s probably falling down the charts due to overuse 20 years ago. My dh said he’s struggling to imagine it on a baby because most Emily’s are in their late teens and 20s now.
its a lovely classic name but I’m not sure if the popularity has time stamped it slightly. Thoughts?
