HelpRe: Amelie, Melanie and Natalia
in reply to a message by Mareasi
Amelie is very pretty, but it's so close to Emily, I'm not sure it's worth the hassle. I feel the same way about Amelie that I do about Emilia, a favorite of mine. If I used it, I'm afraid my daughter would spend her life explaining that, no, she's not Amelia.
I've always liked Melanie, and I had a good friend with the name. I think the Mel- names are a little dated in general, but Melanie is less dated than Melissa and far prettier than Melody.
Natalia feels a little cold to me, but I love Natalie. The Nathalie spelling is very pretty, and I really like it, but I'd probably only use it as a middle name. I think the most conventional spelling is the way to go for first names unless there's a real reason to use an alternative.
