Hi there,
DH and I have been having trouble during the whole pregnancy with names, we just simply cannot agree and have finally found a name we both seem to like.
So I'm just after some opinions on the name 'Amelia', does it go well with our DS and DD's names Christian and Marissa? We have a 4 letter surname so I'm not sure if the name will sound funny with a one syllable surname?
*Edited to ask* Is that even the correct spelling for the name? and how would you pronounce it? Just want to make sure that it's pronounced how I think it is lol.
Anyway, thanks for looking.

I think it goes fine, and it's a lovely name.

I would pronounce it Am-ee-li-ah.
Cute name, glad you have both agreed on something. My DF is being difficult with names we only have 8 days to go (and that is if bub is on time)

Well obviously i think its a great name!...

I LOVE Amelia

But it is insanely popular at the moment, would that bother you?

It goes well with your other children's names.

I pronounce it Ah-meal-lee-ya.

Another lover of the name!! We have an Amelia Faith. We call her Millie most of the time.
I think it goes great with your other children's names as well. I pronounce it the same as the other PP's.

Cheers
Riss

PS. My name is Nerissa and I think Amelia sounds fine when my DH calls us both!

I love the name as well

a-mee-lia is how i pronouce our girl she gets millie and mill for short

We are naming our daughter Amelia Grace. It is pretty popular at the moment but so are heaps of other names and who knows which names will be popular in the next few years. I think it goes great with your kids names

I the name Amelia, its on my shortlist for the next bub! I also adore the NN Millie, so cute for a little girl.

I love Amelia Ah-MEEL-ee-ah.

We already had one in the extended family so my DD has the Spanish version, Emilia.

I think it goes beautifully with your other children's names.

I love it too. I pronounce it as Ah-mee-lee-ah. I also like Emelia and Emilia.

I love the name amelia and would pronounce it as others have said.

Good luck with it all

DD was very close to being Amelia, in the end we chose Chloe as a first name and used Amelia as a mn .

It's a very pretty name, I think it goes lovely with your other children's names aswell.

HTH

Love it!

Shame I couldn't convince my DH, but he must have no taste

obviously.

my amelia's nn is mimi which she chose herself it does suit her though.

I am another lover of Amelia

And I am also another one who is 98% using it as our DD name

just have to add, i love it too..
(gosh, theres a few in here )

I couldnt decide between Amelia OR oLIVIA, BUT REALLY WANTED (OOOPPPS typing 1 handed..) Jae for a middle name & didnt want an OJ. So she is an AJ.. (not that she gets that).
Plus Amelia is DHs granmothers name, so we wanted that...

We have a little girl Amelia in our mum's group. She gets called Mia and Midgey (cos she's tiny) Its a classic, beautiful name that's not going to date either.

Very sweet but quite popular atm.. I know 3 Millis!

i dont particularly like the name, but i dont hate it. Probably because i went to school with a girl called Amelia & she was unbarable!

My niece is called Amelia Grace and she chose to call herself Minnie, which has stuck. She is super cute and it suits her down to the ground.

It does seem very popular nowadays tho, but if you love it, go with it. DS has a very popular name (Lachlan) and we haven't come into contact with that many children with the same name at all!

Good luck, it is a very pretty name
