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.

Man is a depth still greater than the people.
