How many Emilia's do you know?

[lydiangel83]

I really like Emilia as a girls name and DH is ok with it too but don't want there to be lots of Amelias/ Emilias/ other spellings in the same school year.

So I wanted to know whether you know many?

Our short list is very short so other name suggestions also welcome! We like Anglo/ Italian sounding names. Don't know if it's boy or girl which has not helped narrow it down!!

Oh and Isabella and Annabella are also amongst my faves!

My niece is an Emilia

No Emilia's, but Amelia is v popular.

My DD is and we know one other but honestly if you love it, who cares.

I know one, under a year old in North London

I know one Emilia, 2 Amelias, 3 Emilys and one Amelie. I have boys so I don't know masses of girls but it seems to be a very popular name, along with Ava/Eva. The mum of Emilia gets upset that a lot of people call her Amelia by mistake.

I know one Emilia, one Amelie and one Amelia -all in DD's year at school - she's just finishing year 6 if that helps

One, and I was calling her Amelia for ages until I saw it written down.

I know one Emilia and 3 Amelias (and one Ameliah)

My cousin is Amelia and I know another of the top of my head. I know 1 Emilia.

*off

none

I know lots of Amileas but only one Emilia who was in the same year as me at school. Teachers often used to pronounce her name Emmy Leah

2 Emilias

I know a couple of Amelia's, no Emilias.

We considered Emilia.ourselves but decided against it due to the spelling/pronunciation pitfalls. So Emily became a strong contender but then a close colleague had an Emily close to my due date and it seemed a bit wrong to use it (silly now I think about it but hey ho). We ended up using Emily as a middle name

We named our dreams Isabella in the end which is shortened to Izzie. Jut one other Isabella in her year (big year, 120 kids).

I also liked Arabella, Gabriella and Francesca but my DH wasn't as keen.

Our second child was also a girl and we struggled a lot to come up with a name...but settled on Claudia.

We have no Italian connections, but clearly had a leaning to 'a' ending names!!

dreams = daughter

4, and 3 Amelias

At least 5 with this spelling. But does ot matter?

2 Emilias, 1 Amelia, 1 Amelie
1 Annabel
2 Isabelle's
2 Isabel's
3 Isabella's
2 Emily's

none, personally I wouldn't worry about a name being popular. But I can imagine a lot of people calling her Amelia or Emily.

I know 1 Emilia, 3 Amelia's and 2 Amelie's.

Annabella is just gorgeous

I'm a nursery teacher and currently have 2 Emilias and 1 Amelia in my class.

1 Emilia, suits her, and I think its better than Amelia

Loads.

But two are drag acts so they're only called that some of the time.

Two. Fabulous, gorgeous name.
