Emily vs Emmeline

[Hermionieslocket]

Which do you prefer?

I love that Austen/classic/traditional English baby name feel Eg. Pride and prejudice

I’ve contemplated the name Emma, but feel it’s too short.
I’ve always liked Emily but worry it’s so overused.
Emmeline is another name, I like the link to Pankhurst...but my worry is:
-feels trendy
-confused with Emily (as sounds so similar)
-some people may be unaware that it’s a classic name and think I’ve mashed up a name and invented Emmeline which would really annoy me.

Which name would suit my theme more?

Emmie?

I’m an Emmeline, so may be biased. I quite like my name. I shorten it to Emma quite a bit.

I like Emma and don't mind Emmeline, but it is very girly.
Emily is probably my least favourite girl's name ever. Apart from the fact that there must be 4 in every secondary school class, it just sounds so drippy.
