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!!

3 Emilia's, 3 Amelia's, 1 Amelie

Thanks all!

I feel it would be cheating to rename the thread how many Isabellas do you know?!!

In the school I work in there are lots of Isabel/Isobel/Isabella's.

No Annabella's though! ( one Arabella )

Quite a few Amelias, one or two Emilias and one Emelia, who never gets her name spelt correctly!

I like Annabella from your list.

I originally wanted my dd to be Emilia, but dh kept assuming I meant Amelia. I didn't want to have to keep correcting everyone so chaise something else similar. Also didn't want her to have to correct people her whole life. It's a beautiful name, but in order to differentiate the E from A, it would have meant over emphasising it which then just sounded wrong.

At least 6 Isabellas

I know 1 Emilia and 1 Amelia - both adults between 30-40. I really like the name Emilia. There are many Isabelle's And Isabella's in my DCs primary school. What about Aurelia?

I did a count of girls at school,
Alice; Emilia/Amelia and Isobel/ isabelle/Isabella each have 7 of that name in the school (9 classes - infants)

I have one, she's 5 months old. Very rare that someone manages to spell her name right !!

Two Emilia's one is almost 3 the other just 5.
Lots of Isobel's Isabelle's Isabella's and Bella's in my son's school - and class actually (he's 5).
However I do think both are beautiful names and names are only popular when they are nice :)

We have an Emilia in the family, and two Amelia's in my daughters preschool class. I vaguely know one other. That wouldn't put me off.

I love Emilia/Amelia and Isobel/Isabella in all their spellings, but along with Annabelle/Annabel they are the most popular names amongst my friends' kids.

Then there are the Evie/Eva/Avas, another theme. And the ones my mum calls 'Victorian servants' names' like Edith/Maisie/Ruby etc

Emmeline?

It's s very common name and there are thousands of them.

I know 3 Emelias, 2 Amelias and no less than 4 Amelies. It is pretty, but yes there are a lot of them.

None.

Currently 6 small-people Isabelles in all the spelling variations! (Also my mothers name and my daughters middle name.)

3 Isabellas (teenagers), I don't have young children though.

1 Emilia
3 Amelias

1 Isabella
1 Isabelle

1 Annabelle

I may know some but will always assume that it's spelt Amelia which I seem to come across hundreds of so I'm not sure.

Amalia?

Amelie 7
Amelia 1
Emilia 2
Emily 3
Millie 9 (+ a dog)

Isabel 1
Isabelle 3
Izabel 1
Isabella 2

Annabel 1
Annabelle 1

All between 0-8 yrs old.

Plenty of Amelia's but no Emilia's - unless I heard them wrong of course!
