Emilia

Love it! If my boy had been a girl this time, that's what he was going to be called.

Thanks for the comments...

It is to be pronounced with an "eh" at the begining (as in Emily).

I am stuck on it too.. IMO it has a more grown up / sophisticated feel to it then Emily and she is not likely to be the 5th Emilia in her class..

I love it - one of the characters in my favourite Shakespeare play (Othello) is Emilia and I've always associated it with that I think if it's pronounced the way it's spelled (ie, Eh-milia instead of Ah-melia) then it's all good Very pretty name, and traditional but also unique!

My Emilia does get called Amelia a lot of the time by people. It is really subtle on the E so people think you are saying A
