My and dh are starting to really like the name Emily but i am curious to know if it is still popular, the ONS website says it is number 21 on the top 100 names which is still quite mainstream i guess but i recall the name having a few years of mega popularity about 20 years ago so i'd expect most Emily's to be 13+ now.
Do you know any little Emilys? Does it feel dated?
This is my first child so i don't really know what names are popular especially because it varies depending on where you live.

I have an Emily she's 11. When we named her we didn't know any little Emilys, just a few adult ones. There's one other in her large primary school.
It's a name that's often described on MN as boring, but I couldn't give a monkeys. It's a lovely, classic name.
