I love Emerson for a boy only. :) It reminds me of the Brazilian racing driver (from the 70s I think) Emerson Fittipaldi

1. I love Ralph Waldo Emerson, and just before the name went *kaboom* for girls, I entertained the idea of Emerson as a middle name. I really can't stand the name on a girl; it doesn't sound feminine in the slightest--even if she could be called Emmy, the name connotes an older man to me. Ralph Waldo, for example, or Charles Emerson Winchester III. :) I would love to see it on a boy.

Emerson, for a boy, is adorable. :)

I agree!

Emerson is one of those guys who quotes remarkably well, but the concepts behind his larger texts (ie essays, etc; not quotations) can be a little loopy. But I enjoy him anyway.

---

I can't stand that this has been used as a girl name. Yuck! But I think it would make a nice boy's MN. One of my fave combos is Julian Hawthorne (for Nathaniel Hawthorne), so I can see Emerson in that capacity. I adore Poe, but Edgar, Allan, and Poe are unappealing as names. Oh, well. They can't all be winners. :)

PS: Try The American Scholar. Some great quotations.

Emerson has been on my favorites list for a long time. I love it, and love Ralph Waldo Emerson as well.
