Emilia all the way. Not a fan of Daisy

RedMarauder · 02/10/2020 20:07

Both very common names for girls at the moment.

I know plenty of both and related to girls with both names.

KeepSmiling89 · 02/10/2020 20:07

Both are lovely names. What's the surname? Sometimes that helps, particularly dependent on syllables.
I personally prefer the Amelia spelling to Emilia but Emmie is cute as a nn.

DramaAlpaca · 02/10/2020 20:09

Emilia is gorgeous.

Daisy really is twee. It's nice on toddlers and terriers, not so much on an adult woman.

Joolsin · 02/10/2020 20:12

Daisy. Don't listen to the "twee" comments. Mine is mid-20s, an edgy, tattooed, confident woman with no hint of twee about her and she totally suits her name!

So there! Wink

Emilia.

missmouse101 · 02/10/2020 20:28

Daisy is fine. Emilia has the awful 'mealy' sound. 'Eh mealy a.' Mealy I'd a dreadfully ugly word, so im afraid I loathe the name.

EdwardCullensBiteOnTheSide · 02/10/2020 20:29

Daisy🌼

missmouse101 · 02/10/2020 20:29

Is not I'd.

60sPony · 02/10/2020 20:31

Daisy! Love it

Theforest · 02/10/2020 20:37

Daisy by a mile

6PEOPLEONLY · 02/10/2020 20:37

Why not go wild and join them to make Emilaisy

Ellmau · 02/10/2020 20:53

I prefer Emilia.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 02/10/2020 20:55

I like Daisy.

Peachbubble · 02/10/2020 20:56

Daisy

yourestandingonmyneck · 02/10/2020 21:17

Emilia is such a mouthful. Also agree with pp about the "mealy" sound being very unattractive. Like mealworm.

Daisy, by a mile.

Auto · 02/10/2020 21:23

I love both. You can't go wrong! Daisy Emilia or Emilia Daisy would be lovely names.

Firebird83 · 02/10/2020 21:25

Daisy. Emilia just blends in with all the other Emily, Amelia, Amelie names.

Tillygetsit · 02/10/2020 22:28

Daisy. Emilia is not my cuppa at all. If you want Emmie, which is lovely, what about Emmeline?

WettnWild · 02/10/2020 22:31

Just have Emmy, I know an Emmy and she’s fab. Don’t like Daisy.

CharlieBoo · 02/10/2020 22:39

Daisy!! Love it

janetmendoza · 02/10/2020 22:56

Daisy! Too many versions of Emilia or similar

SnowdropFox · 02/10/2020 22:59

Daisy.

I agree with what many others have said. So many variations of Emilia so her name would be lost and misspelled frequently.

quarantandrums · 03/10/2020 10:26

Emilia is so much prettier than Daisy.

missmouse101 · 03/10/2020 10:42

Emilia looks pretty but doesn't sound pretty at all. "Mealy..."
