I am 25 weeks pregnant at the moment and starting to think a bit more about names. We do not know if we are having a boy or girl. Finding boys names a lot easier than girls names. Really liking the nn 'Millie' and more recently the nn 'Emmy'. Would like a more formal given name to take these nicknames from.
I have thought about possible names / spellings. Which do you prefer?

Emelia
Emilia
Emelie
Emily
Emmeline

I have a Millie who is just called Millie on her birth certificate. Middle Name grace. Love the name and suits her so well Smile x

I think millie or Milly is lovely on its own as well unless you want one of the others...

I know three dogs and one cat called Millie :D

Seriously though, Fox is an uber-cool surname, I think a longer first name would sound great with it. Charlotte Fox. Camilla Fox. Miranda Fox. Something like that.

Emmeline is gorge!

I love Emilia, but I am biased! DD1 is Emilia, shortenend to Millie. Occasionally it is pronouced Emelia, incorrect spelling hasn't been a problem.

I like the name, but FYI there are 5 Millys in ds' reception class! And 2 Lillys.

Millicent is a fabulous name - love it!! And to boot you get the short-form of Millie - what's not to like!
