Finally decided on name - opinions please!

Hello all,

Our baby girl is due in [name]May[/name] and we have finally decided on her name-to-be - we love [name]Amelie[/name]. Would love to pronounce it the French way ([name]Ah[/name]-[name]May[/name]-[name]Lee[/name]) but as we live in the UK, we don’t want to be correcting people all the time so will just go with Am - ily.

I also love the name [name]Lili[/name] -do you think her nn could be [name]Lili[/name]? or [name]Lee[/name]-[name]Lee[/name]? I don’t necessarily want to shorten such a pretty name but it would be nice to have a nn.

My mum chose [name]Mirabelle[/name] as her middle name - what do you think? [name]Amelie[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name].

Would love your opinions!!

Thank you

[name]Amelie[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] is really sweet!

It actually reminds me of my best friend (she passed away last [name]December[/name]). Her name was [name]Amelie[/name] [name]Marcheline[/name]. When I was trying to type out your name I almost typed out hers instead. I think [name]Lili[/name] is a really cute nn! [name]How[/name] are you saying it? More like [name]Lily[/name], or like [name]Lee[/name]-[name]Lee[/name]? Either way, I love it. My friend always pronounced it like ah-MILL-ee, with the nn [name]Millie[/name], and she was from [name]Paris[/name]… but I have a friend in the UK who pronounces it like AM-ily, too, so it does make sense that that would be easiest in the UK. :slight_smile:

Congratulations on picking a name, and good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!

It is a beautiful name.

I have considered this exact combo for a future daughter. Therefore I think its an excellent name. I prefer [name]Mirabel[/name] though personally.

[name]Amelie[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] is a very pretty, sweet and feminine combo! I’m happy you found the one for you!

Thank you all so much, what a giant relief to finally love a name to settle on! Really good luck to you all with finding your perfect names too x

love your choice! I also like it better as [name]Amelie[/name] than [name]Amelia[/name]. :slight_smile:
[name]Amelie[/name] [name]Mirabelle[/name] is adorable. and lili is a cute nn for amelie.
