Emmeline

I love Emmeline and I would not shorten it. Why give her such a gorgeous name and shorten it? She'll shorten it herself soon enough. I would encourage her to be confident in her name while she is young. And don't let the teachers shorten it either, they always bloody do this to my son.

If you call her Emmy, people will call her Em. So you should use her full name with pride.

Both good but I'd go with Emmeline Xmas Smile

Emmeline. I really like it and it is refreshing amongst all the Emily/Amelie/Amelia names.

Emilia

Emmaline but I'm biased as it's my DD's name (named after my DM).

Emilia, it was on my list although I went for something similar I'm the end. It will be heard as Amelia though. However Emmeline will bring out the leen and line pronunciations which would really irritate me more.

Yes. I get Em more than Emmy

Emilia the other name sounds harsh and would have pronunciation issues
