hey :)

after reading A LOT OF threads and the comments in my last thread
Finally I've found two of my favourite girl names Blush

VERITY or EMMELINE??

I love the meaning of Verity - truth
and this name looks relatively stronger than many girl names ((???? idk...

At the same time...
I love Emmeline Pankhurst! because of her contribution to feminism!
and the name sounds and looks elegant.
(by the way, which pronunciation do you prefer - Emm-uh-leen OR Emm-uh-line)

THX!!

I have a family member called Emmaleen.

I don’t like Verity at all, sorry!

Girl I went to school with was called Verity and was always called ferrety Verity so I'd never use it.

I like Emmeline but they pronunciation issues would put me off

Emmeline definitely (Emm-uh-leen).

Emmeline. With the leen pronunciation. Verity is rodenty. Couldn't figure out why, then realised it sounds like ferrety...
