All gorgeous! I adore Emma though - so timeless.

Marsyas · 28/03/2023 20:47

Emily

savemejebus · 28/03/2023 20:47

I've got an Emma so biased but all three are beautiful. Seem to be a lot of Emily's in my DD's nursery, don't know any young Hannah's x

SkyeBlue28 · 28/03/2023 20:47

Emily is my favorite but I love all three of those names

TinaTotal · 28/03/2023 20:48

Prefer Hannah and Emily to Emma but all three are great names.

Amy106 · 28/03/2023 20:49

All lovely names-my favourite is Emma.

shoopshoopdedoo · 28/03/2023 20:53

Like all of them! Emma is my favourite

miniaturepixieonacid · 28/03/2023 20:54

I love Hannah. I know so many but a) they're all adults and b) they're all such lovely people.

Emma and Emily are nice but Hannah is my favourite by far.

fairycupcakes · 28/03/2023 23:34

Another vote for Emma. So classic.

AliceMcK · 28/03/2023 23:40

Not Hannah

Emma then Emily

LadyGAgain · 29/03/2023 00:09

Hannah is beautiful.
Emily is bland
Emma is so very normal ( not a bad thing)

Growlybear83 · 29/03/2023 00:33

I think they're all lovely names. I like Emily slightly less than the other two, but only slightly and that's because it reminds me of a friend's slobbery dog who was called Emily😆😆

user1492757084 · 29/03/2023 04:17

Hannah is my fave.
Emma is next.

Emily is not a favourite name of mine.

PurpleReindeer2 · 29/03/2023 05:55

Hannah🥰

WeWereInParis · 29/03/2023 06:03

Emily is my favourite.
Then Hannah

I don't really like Emma.

Croosontpingwing · 29/03/2023 06:08

As one of the three myself I’m delighted to hear the positivity! Always thought my name was boring!

shutthewindownow · 29/03/2023 06:09

Lovely 30 years ago

Twizbe · 29/03/2023 06:11

All very nice names. I'd wait now and see which one fits baby best when they arrive.

welshpolarbear · 29/03/2023 06:13

Hannah

SpringIntoChaos · 29/03/2023 07:05

Emma
Emily
Hannah

(That's my preferred order - all beautiful names OP 🥰)

Twoinapod · 29/03/2023 12:48

At a push, Emily. The other two aren’t to my taste at all

Fifthtimelucky · 29/03/2023 13:03

I like all three. Emily was on our shortlist for our elder daughter, so that is my favourite.

In the end I was glad we didn't choose it because if we had she'd have been one of 3 Emilys in her reception class.

That was 25 years ago though. It may be less popular now.

HappyJellyBaby · 29/03/2023 13:12

Emily is lovely but still very very popular. Hannah pretty unusual. Emma my favourite from your list.

Gistbury · 29/03/2023 13:16

I like Hannah and Emma but I think I'd lean more towards Emma

Cinnamon23 · 29/03/2023 13:36

Emma. I love Emma.

Unfortunately it’s my cousin’s name, otherwise it would be on my list for any future DD!
