hey berries, which one do you prefer?
[name]elise[/name]
I think it’s pretty and elegant, but I’m not sure about how to pronounce it.
is it uh-leese or ee-leese?
[name]emilia[/name]
it has grown on me recently, but I think it’s a bit too girly.
but it’s cute and beautiful.
and what would make a good nm?
[name]eli[/name] for [name]elise[/name]? I don’t like that very much.
[name]emi[/name] for [name]emilia[/name]?
please leave your comments and you’ll be much appreciated 
[name]Elise[/name] is my fave, I say uh-leese or el-eese, not ee-leese.
[name]Emilia[/name]/[name]Amelia[/name] is lovely but a bit overdone at this point to me, I just know so many.
My faves nn’s are:
[name]Elise[/name] - [name]Elle[/name] (you could also do [name]Ella[/name], [name]Ellie[/name], Lissy, [name]Lise[/name])
[name]Emilia[/name] - [name]Milly[/name] (you could also do [name]Mia[/name], [name]Emmy[/name], [name]Em[/name], [name]Mila[/name], [name]Milla[/name])
[name]Hope[/name] that helps!
emelia is recently on my list, and I still doubt about it.
I love the nn elle and milly.
thank you for your reply:)
[name]Elise[/name] and [name]Amelia[/name] were my most favorite names when I was younger!! I still really like both of them a lot, and am even coming around to the [name]Emilia[/name] spelling… it lends itself to the nn [name]Emmy[/name] which I love I think [name]Elise[/name] is most often pronounced uh-lees, but ee-lees/eh-lees/ih-lees are fine too, it’s just really a subtle difference… It’s the same with [name]Elizabeth[/name]… you can say uh-lizabeth, ee-lizabeth, eh-lizabeth, ih-lizabeth, I don’t think it makes that much of a difference! I like Leesy, Lissy, and [name]Ellie[/name] as nicknames for [name]Elise[/name].
I prefer [name]Emilia[/name]
Well here in the UK elegant isn’t a word I’d use to associate the name [name]Elise[/name]!
[name]Emilia[/name] is gorgeous, and I love the nicknames [name]Emme[/name] and [name]Millie[/name].
I prefer [name]Elise[/name], and I think it sounds beautiful, mature, and elegant. [name]Emilia[/name] is all right, but it’s close enough to [name]Amelia[/name] not to be worth the trouble, imo.
I pronounce [name]Elise[/name] more like eh-LEES or uh-LEES. If I wanted a nickname, I’d probably use [name]Elle[/name] or [name]Lise[/name]. For [name]Emilia[/name], I’d use [name]Em[/name].
[name]Elise[/name] is my personal equivalent to [name]Marie[/name] and [name]Rose[/name], I stick it in as the mn for almost all of my favorite first names. So I suggest [name]Emilia[/name] [name]Elise[/name] (I like alliteration). I pronounce [name]Elise[/name] both ways, don’t think there’s much of a difference.
Does [name]Emmeline[/name] sound a little less girly?
[name]Emiliana[/name] is one of my favs, nn [name]Milo[/name] or [name]Mila[/name]
I think [name]Elise[/name] is short enough to not need a nn, but you could go with [name]Lisa[/name], [name]Elle[/name], [name]Ellie[/name]
I like [name]Elise[/name] best! I pronounce it as eh-lees or ee-lees. I think the ee-lees pronunciation makes it sound more elegant.
I like both!
[name]Elise[/name] - simple, sweet, elegant. I would probably use just [name]Elise[/name] (eh-LEES), but I also like the nn [name]Ella[/name]/[name]Elle[/name].
[name]Emilia[/name] - [name]Emilia[/name] is a MN on my list, so of course I love it. I like it so much more than [name]Amelia[/name]! I like [name]Emma[/name] or [name]Emmy[/name] best as a nn, probably, but I do like [name]Em[/name], [name]Millie[/name], [name]Lia[/name], [name]Mia[/name], etc…
I think my vote would go to [name]Emilia[/name], but I absolutely love both. I would love to see [name]Emilia[/name] [name]Elise[/name]!
