Annie or Amélie

[Londonmama85]

I love them both :) Which do you prefer?

(wouldn’t want Annie to be a nn for a longer name)

I know a lot of primary school Amelies, prior to the past 10 years I only ever knew my sister - an Amelie born in the late 80s when no one had ever really heard of it in the UK and she always got mistaken for Emily. She has used Amy as a nickname since she was about 10. One of those names that sounds like it should be unusual but seems to be very common, around here at least.

I think Amelie is nice enough but I think it will become quite dated. Annie is lovely but I do prefer Anna.
