He was convinced and is on board with emmeline if we have a girl one day, she is a contender
I love the name Emmeline for a girl (hubs does not) and it sounds similar to my maiden last name (ebb-line) and I really like that — in a sense honoring my family’s heritage
( pronounced Emma-line )
I need help thinking of names to go with it !
Would like to use emmeline (nn emma) as a first name, but not opposed to making it a middle

As much as I adore [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], since your husband doesn’t love it, I’d move it to the middle name.

He said he was okay with Emma, but I wanted a “proper” name for it and he said no . But I think I’m stuck on Emmeline.
These are wonderful names! And I did think about moving it to a middle as a compromise for us
I really love Cosette, grace and Sophie đź©·
haha makes sense! [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] is gorgeous, so I understand why you’re stuck on it! I think moving it to the middle name is a great compromise, even if it hurts a little bit I’m sure you both will find a name you love that works well with [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f]. Wishing you the best!

I was actually just looking at this name in the SSA charts and was surprised to find it ranked #948! I knew it wasn’t common, but didn’t realize it was rare.
Hopefully you can convince him on a middle name, especially if you feel you can use it as an honor to you or your family I’d bring it up again in a couple months so see how he feels, especially if you share some name combos with it. [name_f]My[/name_f] husband took some time to warm up to names, then ended up loving them later on his own.
I also love [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f] (though the -leen prn is my fav), and I really wanted to use it for a girl with [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] as a sometimes nickname, but we realized the last syllable slant rhymes our last name, so we don’t think we can use it for a first or middle So I hope you get to use it for a middle! It’s a beautiful name that feels so elegant and classic

It’s a very sweet name. I love that it would honor your family. But yes, if your husband doesn’t love it, it may need to end up in the middle spot.

[name_f]Gemma[/name_f] [name_f]Olivette[/name_f] came to mind for you
