[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]!!
I like [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] the best! Beautiful name. [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] is probably the most unique - it’s very pretty. [name_f]Emme[/name_f] doesn’t do it for me - a little bit lacklustre compared to the other two. Good luck!
As a combo I like [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] the best. [name_f]Emme[/name_f] doesn’t do anything for me and Valer[ee] Am[ee]lia doesn’t flow that well to me.
I love [name_f]Valerie[/name_f]! Such an underused name! I think it’s the best 
[name_f]Coraline[/name_f] - I think this is a really beautiful name that works well with [name_m]Elijah[/name_m]. Have you considered [name_f]Coralie[/name_f]? It incorporates a lot of [name_f]Valerie[/name_f]'s sounds, but is much more modern and I like it a lot more. [name_f]Coralie[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] works, but I would switch it to [name_f]Coralie[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] just for phonetic reasons. Oh, and [name_f]Coralie[/name_f]/line [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] - spells CAR. Doesn’t bother me, but I thought I’d point it out.
[name_f]Emme[/name_f] - I think this is a really pretty name, but it doesn’t work with [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] following after it. The repeated M sound is too much. [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] “[name_f]Em[/name_f]” would work as well. Also, [name_f]Emme[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] spells EAR, which I do sort of dislike. I also dislike siblings sharing initials ([name_m]Elijah[/name_m] & [name_f]Emme[/name_f]) because I think it’s a bit tacky.
[name_f]Valerie[/name_f] - I think [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] shares a lot of letters with [name_f]Amelia[/name_f]. It’s nice that it’s your favourite, but [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] feels too outdated next to modern [name_m]Elijah[/name_m]. I do like nn [name_u]Val[/name_u] though. Also, don’t listen to your sister about baby names. This is YOUR little girl, not hers. You name her. Auntie will grow to love the name or will find a cute nickname.
I was all for [name_f]Emme[/name_f] when pronounced the same as [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] but as just M it seems to be lacking something and I think it’ll get mispronounced a lot. It would probably be better spelled Emm. Tbh, neither of your other two names are really my style. I’d choose [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] over [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] though.
[name_f]Coraline[/name_f] get my vote. Although I do like someone’s suggestion of [name_f]Coralie[/name_f]. Very nice.
[name_f]Valerie[/name_f] isn’t my cup if tea at all and I don’t like the pronunciation of [name_f]Emme[/name_f].
I love [name_f]Coraline[/name_f]/[name_f]Coralie[/name_f]. [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] feels a bit dated to me, although I do love the letter V
[name_f]Coraline[/name_f] reminds me of [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] which is one of my least favorite names. I’ve always loved [name_f]Valerie[/name_f]. [name_f]Emme[/name_f] is too similar to [name_f]Emily[/name_f].
I think [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] sounds dated and too close to [name_f]Malory[/name_f].
[name_f]Emme[/name_f] would be pronounced like [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] all the time so I wouldn’t use it for that reason except if it was a nn to a longer [name_f]Em[/name_f] name.
I voted for [name_f]Coraline[/name_f]. It is a little awkward to me because I want to say [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]. Maybe [name_f]Coralie[/name_f]?
Definitely like [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] the best. I’d use [name_f]Coraline[/name_f], nn [name_f]Cora[/name_f] just because I think [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] and [name_f]Cora[/name_f] go better together. And just another thought…don’t let your sister’s opinion cloud your judgement. Look, my siblings and I have very different naming styles and I really did not like any of the names any of them picked out (not that I would have ever told them that! [name_m]Rude[/name_m]) but let me tell you, I adore everything about my nephews and since their names are part of them, then I love those names because they are THEIRS. She will too.
I think that [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] and [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] sound awesome together.
[name_f]Coraline[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is lovely and got my vote. [name_m]Elijah[/name_m] & [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] sound fantastic together.
[name_f]Emme[/name_f] ([name_f]EM[/name_f]) I would imagine would be mispronounced ([name_f]EM[/name_f]-ee) nine times out of ten, and [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] I find very dated, particularly next to [name_m]Elijah[/name_m].
[name_f]Coraline[/name_f]!
[name_f]Emme[/name_f] is in the same family of names as [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] ([name_f]Amelia[/name_f], [name_f]Amelie[/name_f], [name_f]Emily[/name_f], [name_f]Emma[/name_f], etc.) so I don’t really think it works at all. [name_f]Emme[/name_f] or [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], but not both.
[name_f]Valerie[/name_f] would be nice if it weren’t so dated at the moment. A pp pointed out how it also shares too many letters with [name_f]Amelia[/name_f].
[name_f]Coraline[/name_f] is nice, but have you thought about [name_f]Corinne[/name_f] or [name_f]Corinna[/name_f]? They seem to fit the vibe of [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] and [name_f]Emme[/name_f] together.
I love [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] or [name_f]Coraline[/name_f]! Who cares what your sister thinks! We only had one supporter for our daughters name. Now they all love it.
As a [name_f]Valeria[/name_f] I feel sort of forced to vote for [name_f]Valerie[/name_f], haha ([name_f]Valeria[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]? [name_m]Just[/name_m] an idea…).
However, [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] is beautiful as well! [name_f]Emme[/name_f] feels more like a nickname than a full name for me.
[name_f]Coraline[/name_f] is my favorite. It sounds beautiful with [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and it’s a lovely name with great nn options.
[name_f]Valerie[/name_f] is fine, and sounds well with [name_m]Elijah[/name_m]. I can’t help but feel that other V names would sound nicer though–[name_f]Veronica[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Viola[/name_f].
Sort of a halfway between [name_f]Coraline[/name_f] and [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] would be [name_f]Coralie[/name_f].
[name_f]Coraline[/name_f] is my favorite, mostly because I love the name [name_f]Cora[/name_f]. I like [name_f]Valerie[/name_f] too, and I say who cares what your sister thinks. It’s your baby, not hers, and she’ll get used to the name once the baby is born.
Have you thought about [name_f]Coralie[/name_f]? I like it so much more than [name_f]Coraline[/name_f]…
My favorite from your list is [name_f]Valerie[/name_f], though. Beautiful and familiar but not too popular.
