Thank you everyone for all your help on my last thread.

We decided on Sebastian for a boy.

However if it’s a girl most votes were for Amelie or Emily.

My husband prefers Emily as it’s classic
I do like Emily but feel it’s dated? Amelie is more fresh.

What do you think? Please vote one!

How is Amelie pronounced?

Ninkanink · 13/01/2020 09:53

Amelie.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 13/01/2020 10:08

Like Emily but with a lower case A at the start.

I vote Emily and don’t find it dull in the slightest! I love it

pinkpanther84 · 13/01/2020 10:39

Amelie

AlpacaGoodnight · 13/01/2020 20:32

Both very common! I teach 5 Amelie's (2 classes) and 3 Emily's and 2 Emilie's this year

Hi everyone,

Thank you all so much for your help.
I know a lot of you requested an update, so after 30 hours of labour I finally met my baby BOY!

We welcomed Sebastian “Seb” into the world ❤️ And I am truly in love.

Also glad it was a boy, because I was still undecided for a girls name.

Thank you all.

That’s great @robin04031402, but OP had a wee boy whom she called Sebastian (Seb for short).

HelloRoaring20s · 14/01/2020 22:40
