Trying to decide between Emily and Elena. I love them both. Emily's nickname would be Emmie, and Elena's nickname would be Lainey. I love both these names and can't decide. Any suggestions? Middle name need to start with R or F. I was thinking Rose or Fiona as two options.

| Emily, because once that child is born, you'll see taht there is a Disney show named Elena of Avalore, and you'll regret giving your daughter that name. |

| I'm an Emily, and I like my name. Note, however, that there is a horror movie named the "Exorcism of Emily Rose." |

| Elena but I would call just by her full name. If you must use a nickname, Ellie is, imo, much better than Lainey. |

Maybe OP (&/or her DH ) is Eastern European/Russian or Hispanic. |

| Elena. Both are good though. |

Elena (no nickname).
Emily is so incredibly boring! Given how popular both Emily & Emma have been for the past 15 years or so, you could probably call out "Em! Over here!" at any crowded park or in any co-ed/ girls' school cafeteria in this area & at least 10% of the girls within earshot would probably turn around. |

| Emily. I immediately thought of Elena of Avalor. |

What kind of savage are you??? I just had a new niece named Emily and I am EXTREMELY offended by this. I'll have you know she is the least boring baby I have ever encountered. I bet your name is "Katie" or "Jen." EMILYS ROCK MY WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
