Becoming a bit obsessed with this Grin but after my suggestion of Marley didn’t go down too well, and my next possible contender - Talitha- had mixed reviews (and ended up being scrapped due to the pronunciation issue..)
My DH threw a name in the mix earlier that seems to tick both our boxes.
Emmeline.
He likes classic names. I like something a little different- I don’t know any little Emmelines. And I love the nickname Emmy.
I call Louisa Lulu, Hannah has an unrelated nickname to her name.

So… does it past the mumsnet test? Do you know any Emmelines? I can see it might get confused with Emily?
I do like the name Emily as well but maybe too popular?

Hannah, Louisa, Emmeline
Hannah. Louisa, Theodore

Just need a baby now….. Smile

I like it and it goes well with your other three. I don’t agree that Emily is a downgrade though - it’s another great name and also a Suffragette connection in Emily Davison!

Love Emmeline. Taught a girl with that name last year, really like it. I personally think it is infinitely nicer than Emily, which I could take or leave as a name. But each to their own.

I know an Emmeline who is Lina as a NN. Lovely name.
