Amelie (Mimi) - name doubts

51 replies

We had a little girl and called her Amelie. I lived in France for a long time and liked the french link. My husband and DD1 have started calling her Mimi.

My mum told me Mimi is ridiculous and a cartoon name and also few people struggle to say Amelie - doesn’t rope off tongue as easy as Emily or Amelia. This has just given me name doubts which I’m stressing over - have we picked wrong name.

Please can you give me reassurance or tell me if it is actually awful.

Thanks

Amelie is lovely and not hard to say. Well recognised (but not overused) in this country. Mimi is a cute nickname for a little one. Rest assured with your lovely choice 😊 hope you get some sleep soon X
