I'm not normally one to concern myself with nicknames, as I think you can't really force a nickname... it just seems to happen organically.
However, DH came to me last night with the name Emilia (nickname Emmy) and he was in love with the nickname. The problem is that the name Emilia is the top contender for my BFF who is TTC #2. While I know no one can 'save a name' she is more like family to me and I just count that name as off limits.
Any other full names that might produce the nickname Emmy I can bring to him?
Thanks guys! There are far too many Emma's in our area and I'm afraid to add to that whole thing. Some of the ones you listed I hadn't considered so I will run them by DH!
I agree with MamaWren. I love Emmaline (Brook Sheilds' character in Blue Lagoon). I do not like Emilia though bc it is too close to Amelia and the child will spend her whole life having to spell it out.
