Baby Names

decided... what do you think?

Finally decided on a name and spelling. We are naming our little girl due in April, Emerson Grace. We will probably end up calling her Emme when she is little.

Re: decided... what do you think?

  • I think it is a fine name. I love the nn.

    However it probably won't get much love on the board since you are using a boy's name.

  • I like Grace and Emme, but I'm not a fan of calling a little girl Emerson, but that's just me.
  • P.S sorry this got posted twice, the internet is freaking out at work today :(

    Agreed, but at least with such a masculine name she can always fall back on her mn.  Congrats on deciding.

  • I like Emerson for a girl though I do have a thing about a girl's name containing the word "son". DD is Payson but we chose to spell it Paysen.
  • I haven't heard Emerson for a girl but it does flow. Emmie is cute.

  • I only know of one Emerson, and it's a girl.  They do call her "Emmy" or "Em" most of the time.

    When I first heard the name, I didn't like it, but I've warmed up to it a little I like it more now than I use to.

  • Well...I don't like the actual sound of Emerson, to be frank. It's just not pleasant-sounding to me. Grace is pretty. I love the nn Emme.

    Congrats on picking.

    I usually agree with THIS but "Emersen" looked weird to me and I can't stand "emersyn" "emersin" or " emercyn". So we decided to keep the original spelling to save our daughter from always correcting people (which I have to do ALL the time)

    Paysen looks super cute spelled that way though

    Sorry, what does nn stand for?

  • If you've decided, I wouldn't ask for opinions.

    But since you did, Emerson is NMS and I'm so over "Em_ Grace" names. It just seems overdone to me.

    Same. I know a girl named Emerson, so maybe that influences me, but I think it's a pretty , feminine name

  • It's nice to decide but then it's probably not good to ask opinions. Alot of people get upset when doing this.

    I like Grace but I don't like Emerson. It's all boy to me since it ends in "son".

    I like it for a boy and suggested it to my DH but he reminded me it was an appliance company. So I decided against it.

    No worries...sometimes TB flips out too. I've had a couple of double posts recently.

  • Congrats on deciding!  But since you are asking what we think...I'm not a fan of Emerson.  It's become so popular for girls and I don't know why.  Emme or Emmie is a cute nn, though.

  • Sorry, but I can't stand it.  Emerson is a boy's name.  Grace is boring and overdone...I know over 30 girls with that middle name.  Yuck.

  • I know a sweet family who named their daughter Emerson Ruth. I thought it was precious
  • imagemj.reilly:
    I really dislike Emerson on a girl. The name is definitely not something I would ever consider.

    Congrats on deciding.

    This.

  • Good!

    I don't personally like the name, but there is nothing wrong with it.

    Me too!  =)
