Names like Amy?

Hey, y’all. Ive been thinking about this name since my MIL said it was one of her favorites (she never used it.) I already have Amalia, Amaryllis, Amias, and Ambrose on my list, so I’d like something different. Like something longer, and I’d prefer it if it didn’t start with an A. I don’t really know what I’m asking for, except what names feel like Amy to you?

Edit: I think I should say that I would totally use Amy, except that my husband finds it “weird.”

TIA :sparkles:

Names that feel like Amy…

[name_f]Maya[/name_f]
[name_f]Mia[/name_f]
[name_u]Arlie[/name_u]
[name_f]Elisa[/name_f]
[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f] and [name_f]Amy[/name_f] could be friends And you can’t get much longer

This is a tough question!

How do you see [name_f]Amy[/name_f]? Is she glamorous or sleek or spunky or something else?

@MeganJoy Maya is a great Amy replacement and I definitely find it spunky but very feminine!
@EdgeOfTheMeadow I have an aunt Christina and I’ve always thought she had a pretty name! Jasmine, Marina, and Marcella definitely give me Amy vibes :sparkles:
@Greyblue I love so many of these suggestions!! Mabel, Zara, Gemma, Mara, Misty, Holly, Annabeth, and Josie all feel very “Amy” to me.
@snowmaiden Thank you I’ve never seen Laramie before its beautiful! Would you pronounce it lar-uh-mee?
@Ehrob1 I love Amity and Cara and I have them on my list!! Leah is one of my favorite nicknames for girls and it definitely reminds me of Amy. I would definitely use Sara, Megan, Lauren, and Katie IRL but they were vetoed :melting_face: but they definitely work in place of Amy!
@Victory55 Masie, Sadie, and Emery feel a lot like Amy!
