Emiliana instead of Emily?

Lumie123 · 26/06/2020 20:05

My brother in law goes by Oliver and nephew Ollie, I would imagine I would always use Olivia. Not keen on Emiliana, I liked Emilia but a friend beat me to that name also.

What's with these -iana names. All I hear - the ee-AH-nuh bit. Emily is quite enough, is pretty and classic. Diana is nice.

Has anyone suggested Oliviana?

Go for olivia. You could say she is named after do bro and it makes everyone feel great.

I'd use Emilia! The start of Emily and the end of Olivia Smile I prefer it to both as well.

Suggestions:

Lucy
Orla
Louisa
Evelyn (Evie for short)

Oh sorry just saw your other post on Emilia. I have to say though, I would use the same name as a friend but not the same name (or feminine version) of a family name...

It's hard though - if you only like Olivia just go with that.
