[Doglover83]

[toughgetsgoing]

Amelie nn mimi or millie good luck OP

[Sophronia]

[pickle162]

Amelie

[kaytee87]

Annie is a nn to me. As a pp said, Annelie is nice.

[totsalot]

Amelie has been done to death around here, it's the most commonly used name in playgroup. Annie is lovely and less likely to get the "Emily/Amelia/how do you spell that again?" scenario

[SnowyPolarBear]

Not keen on either. Annie is nicer.

Amelie will have a lifetime of mispronunciations. "Amelia?" "Emily?"

[pipilangstrumpf]

Anya is shorter than Annie. Beautiful name!

[Justgivemesomepeace]

I love Annie. If I wanted a longer name to shorten I think I'd go with Anya.

[PandaCat]

Annie

[MikeUniformMike]

Annie. Not keen on Ammerley

If you are considering other names which can be shortened to Annie, I also love Anna with nn Annie. Or Anastasia, Annabel, maybe even something like Arianna shortened to Annie?

I do like Amelie, but it’s so close to Amelia and doesn’t always sound great in a British accent, (to me at least).

[Notreallyarsed]

Annie (I have an Annie). Ironically one of her best friends is Amelie!

[iggleypiggly]

Annie, beautiful name. Doesn’t sound like a nickname. And even if it did... does it matter??? Love the name!

[zippyswife]

There are tonnes of Amelie’s here. I think Anna is so classic and elegant and Annie can always be the cute nn.

[MaisyPops]

Amelie
I've never met one either so am surprised people are saying it's really common

[MammieBear]

Annie, is fine and stands well as a full name she can still go by Ann if she wanted to.

[Joeybee]

Amelie as Annie sounds like a nickname. Amelie is cute and modern sounding and elegant. It's a nice alternative to Emily also.

[NeepNeepNeep]

What about Mary?

[DramaAlpaca]

Annie. Although I do prefer it as a nickname.

IMO Amelie only sounds nice in a French accent.

[stormnigel]

Annie. Love it. Amelie is very common now and also I'm a bit weird about giving foreign names if you aren't yourself from that country...assuming you aren't French if course, in which case, as you were.

[NeepNeepNeep]

Amelie. Never met one.

[ByThePowerOfRa]

Annie

[CPtart]

Too many Amelias by far, but Annie sound a bit wet.
Anna is lovely.

[pipilangstrumpf]

To me Annie is a cute nickname for Anna or Annabelle. I prefer Amelie.

[rubberducker]

Annie. I love Amelie too but there really are loads of them around.
