Wdyt of the name "Emmi" or "Emmy"

BabyBoo06 · July 2009

I think it's normally used as a nn for Emerson, but Emerson is too close to Allison (our 2nd dd). WDYT of "Emmy"? Which spelling?

Also looking for any and all girl suggestions that go with Avery and Allison (no need for another A, it was never meant to be a theme). We're stumped.

Thanks!

I think it's cute for a little girl, but would be absolutely awful after the age of 10. I know there are a few famous ones out there, but I think for regular people it would be a tough sell on a job application.

I actually like the spelling Emmie (Emmy would be my second choice).

Have you thought about naming her Emma and calling her "Emmy" for short? I think it ages better.

The 4yr old I nanny for is named Emily. We almost always call her Emmy... it just kind of happened! But she can always go back to Emily. GL!

I think it's cute with a "y"

I don't think either ages well.

Emme, Emma, Emily - all good alternatives that nn down to Emmie/Emmy

My first thought was of the Emmy Awards. It is a cute nickname but I don't think it ages very well.

Some sister names to Avery are Aubrey, Peyton, Ava, Mallory, Emory

Some for Allison are Natalie, Erin, Andrea, Lauren, Danielle

Don't know if any of those are your style but it might be a jumping off point - good luck!!

I know a girl named Emmy. It fits her... always has. Her middle name is Lee though, which IMO is pretty silly. Emmy Lee. Ugh!

I love the name Emerson. It is actually our girl name if we are ever blessed with one! We wil use the nn Emmy as well. I don't think that using Emerson is that big of a deal with your other daughter's name especially if you are going to call her Emmy. All my sons have Irish meanings and Emerson surely doesn't and I don't care. If you like it go for it!!

You could always use a different form as well - Emma, Emily, Emmaline and call her Emmy!

And I like Emmy with a "y."

GL!

I definetly think there should be a longer "formal" version. Emmy (Emmie, Emmi) sounds too much like a nickname!

Megsd721 · July 2009

I think I am the only one who thinks it should be spelled Emme.

I know an Emily who goes by Emme..

Adalaide, Adrianne, Paige, Claire, Peyton, Isla, Chelsea, Sydney, Sophia, Amelia, Tess?

I like the Emmie spelling.

Emily and Emma are great names with Emmy as a super cute nickname. I don't care for it as a stand alone name.

smseltz80 · July 2009

That is my favorite name for a girl. I would do Emerson and called her Emme. ?(pronounced Emmy)?

Emmy sounds fine. It reminds me of Emmy Rossum... and how I saw her naked working summer theatre...

this.

Emmi with an i is horrible. Emmy or Emmie are much cuter.

This. Or Emily. Emmy doesn't seem like a legitimate full name.

My DD name is Imogen and we call her Immy

nicoleb1 · July 2009

How about Emme? We are thinking about the name Emery Grace and calling her Emme for short.
