Tricky! I like both. I think Emilia is a bit prettier and has more nn options, however there will be lots of them whereas Freya is more unusual.

Emilia even though it's more popular. It's popular for a reason.

The nn options are precisely why I've been favouring Emilia but do love Freya too. If it helps, the middle name will probably be Bethan and the surname is Rose.

Emilia

Emilia goes better with Rose as a surname (I always think three syllable names are best with single syllable surnames, our surname is similar)

I really like Freya. I know too many emilias/amelias

I love Emilia, Freya always sounds a bit meh to me...

Emi1ia Bethan R0se is a truly fabulous name.

They're both good. Freyas really need to be blonde. Grin
