Saw this name at the hospital where I work and it really grew on me. Initial thoughts...?

    NMS. It looks like a dyslexic version of Amelia.

    I am not sure how to pronounce it. Is it similar to Emily?

    I like the name Amalie and it is on my list of names.  We have already decided on a different girl name though if this one is a girl.  My husband and I were at a wedding in Germany a few years ago and Amalie is the groom's niece's name.  I have liked it since then :-)

    I like it - but prefer the spelling "Amelie." Seen the movie? Good connotations with the name..

    I prefer Amelie or Amalia. I feel like you would get asked about the pronunciation of Amalie very frequently and that it would also be likely to be misspelled a lot (assuming you live in the U.S.).

    LOVE! There was a little girl from France at a daycare I worked at which confirmed how much I really love this name.

    Hmmm, I don't think Amelie or Amalia would be any easier or any more recognizable than Amalie. But that's just me...
