We just found out we are having a baby girl 19 months following the birth of our son, [name_u]Max[/name_u] [name_m]Sylvester[/name_m]. We are struggling to name this girl. We prefer family middle names so the choices there are likely [name_f]Rose[/name_f] or [name_u]Jo[/name_u]. We both “maybe” like [name_f]Sadie[/name_f], [name_f]Eliza[/name_f], [name_f]Mila[/name_f], [name_f]Nora[/name_f], [name_f]Amelia[/name_f], [name_f]Emilia[/name_f], and [name_f]Cora[/name_f]. We both really like [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] but I’m just not sold on it yet. I want the name to go well with our son’s, not be too popular (unfortunately like [name_f]Nora[/name_f] and [name_f]Amelia[/name_f]), and have a family homage. I love the names [name_f]Stella[/name_f] and [name_f]Leona[/name_f] but my husband is not on board. He likes [name_f]Lily[/name_f] but I’ve never been a fan. Other female family names include [name_f]Tena[/name_f], [name_f]Rita[/name_f], [name_f]Emma[/name_f], [name_f]Fern[/name_f], [name_f]Linda[/name_f], [name_f]Agnes[/name_f], [name_f]Minnie[/name_f], and [name_f]Ethyl[/name_f]. We also have an uncommon last name that starts with O. While I love [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] (nn [name_f]Emmy[/name_f]), I don’t want her to have to spell her first and last names constantly for people. Help please?
What about using [name_f]Emma[/name_f] for the middle, since it’s a family name, and calling her [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] sometimes? That way, you get your dedication and your nickname of choice, but you don’t have to settle.
Some names I think you both might like:
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f] ([name_f]Audrey[/name_f] [name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f], maybe, or either one)
[name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] or [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f] (both are gorgeous with [name_f]Emma[/name_f] in the middle spot)
[name_f]Celia[/name_f] ([name_f]Cecelia[/name_f] [name_f]Emma[/name_f] would be lovely, or [name_f]Celia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f])
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f] or just [name_f]Lila[/name_f] / [name_f]Lilah[/name_f]
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] ([name_f]Lucy[/name_f] [name_u]Jo[/name_u] is [name_f]PRECIOUS[/name_f])
[name_f]Maisie[/name_f] ([name_f]Maisie[/name_f] [name_f]Emma[/name_f], [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] [name_u]Jo[/name_u])
[name_f]Sophia[/name_f] / [name_f]Sophie[/name_f] (both are great with [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and [name_u]Jo[/name_u] - I also like [name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] a lot, if switching your honor spot is an option)
Not sure if you’ve ever heard of the show Dragon Tales, but the siblings on that show were actually [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] and [name_u]Max[/name_u]! I always loved it.
What about [name_f]Emmeline[/name_f], nickname [name_f]Emmy[/name_f]? Or [name_f]Emilie[/name_f]/[name_f]Emily[/name_f]?
[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]/[name_f]Emilia[/name_f] [name_u]Jo[/name_u] are both lovely. I’m not sure the spelling thing would hold me back, if you are both sold on the name otherwise.
[name_f]Mila[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is also quite stunning! Lots of great choices here.
I love [name_f]Mila[/name_f] and [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] most from your list! Both great options for a sister to [name_u]Max[/name_u]. Realistically, I think you’re right, if you name her [name_f]Emilia[/name_f] she’ll be spelling it to people all the time so I understand your concern there. However, she’ll get used to that, if that’s the case, so I wouldn’t let that be the deal breaker if you both love it.
[name_f]Emmy[/name_f] and [name_u]Max[/name_u] to me is far more boring than [name_f]Mila[/name_f] and [name_u]Max[/name_u] or [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] and [name_u]Max[/name_u]. What do you think of [name_f]Etta[/name_f]? Can be used as a stand alone name or as a nickname to just about any name ending in -et or -ette.

Like any of these? I hope you can find a name you both love! Good luck 
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f], [name_u]Ruby[/name_u], [name_f]Heidi[/name_f], [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f], [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], [name_f]Vera[/name_f], [name_f]Esther[/name_f], [name_f]Rosa[/name_f], [name_f]Adele[/name_f], [name_f]Lola[/name_f], [name_f]Mary[/name_f], [name_f]Cora[/name_f], [name_f]Jane[/name_f], [name_f]Hazel[/name_f], [name_f]Eva[/name_f], [name_f]Sadie[/name_f] and [name_f]Nina[/name_f] came to mind.
I love [name_f]Emilia[/name_f]. I know that you said she would be constantly spelling out her name but it’s pronounced with an [name_f]Em[/name_f] sound instead of an Am sound (hope that made some sense). She can also just say “[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] with an E”.
I love [name_f]Mila[/name_f] and [name_f]Nora[/name_f] but I agree that [name_f]Nora[/name_f] is getting more popular.

Good luck finding a name!
I think [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] & [name_u]Max[/name_u] are perfect together. I love the nn [name_f]Liza[/name_f] just as much as [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]. [name_u]Max[/name_u] [name_m]Sylvester[/name_m] & [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] or [name_f]Eliza[/name_f] [name_f]Fern[/name_f] are great. I also really like the suggestion of [name_f]Willa[/name_f], [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_u]Jo[/name_u] and [name_f]Willa[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] are adorable.
