Is Emma old fashioned?

[PepperSteaks]

I really like Emma for a second baby (Not even conceived yet but day dreaming) I also like the NNs Em and Emmie. However is it a 90s? When I was growing up every class has 2 Emma’s but I haven’t heard it for new babies in ages!

I love Emma. It's high on the baby names list these days so must be quite popular again

I'm an Emma born in the 70's. I hated it growing up as there were so many of us in my school and I wished I had been given a more interesting name. I toyed with changing it for a while, but I've grown to like it and feel that I wouldn't change it now. I get mostly called Em as a nickname, which I like, and at school I was Emu () but I've never been an Emmie.

There were 11 Emma’s in my year alone at big school (early 90s). And 13 Catherine’s of various spellings. I can’t get over that I’m afraid. It does strike a 90s-teenager chord. But I guess, of all the oft-used classics, it’s a nice one.

I love the name Emma :)

No it's a nice name

I generally like classic names but I'm not keen on Emma. It just seems so dull.
