What do you think of the name Emma? I love it. Unforutately it isn't my real name, but I use it for blogs, and informal documents.

I love it, but it's SO overdone! Emmeline and Emilia are also gorgeous, and less popular.

I have a friend that used to be nuts about the name Emma. She kept repeatedly telling me that when she grew up she was going to be a PE teacher and have a daughter named Emma.

If it wasn't so mainstream, then maybe I'd consider it, but I don't want my daughter going to school being Emma Y or Emma C or Emma Number 264890!

Reality is a poor substitute for my dreams.

I used to really like the name Emma when I didn't hear it very often, but it's become way too popular. I prefer Emmeline / Emmaline.

Emma is pretty- it's my mom's name- and I like it. Just a bit too common for my taste

I know it's popualar, but I like mainstream names. It was my great Grandmother's name. I've been to her grave a few times.

I love it. My niece is Emma Elizabeth. She's 2 and a half and I hate it that there are so many her age with the name Emma. But it totally suits her.

"Yawn" is what I think of when I hear Emma, I'm afraid.

I really wish it wasn't so boringly popular, because it's a family name on both my parents' sides. And I really love my g-gma's name, Emma Frieda. But it is popular, and I'm sick of the sound of it.

I love the name Emma. One of my flower girls' names was Emma Grace. She's adorable and a real sweetie pie so the association is very good for me.
