Re: Amelia or Emilia?

Emilia. I guess I just like the Latin looking spelling more - where the letters tell you how to say them. I like how the initial vowel isn't an "uh" sound.
I say them differently, at least in my head. uh-MEEL-ia versus em-MEE-lia.
Amelia with its e seems to contain the sound of the word mealy, and Emilia seems more like the word demilune, like Emil + ia, the ee sound not as long.
