Re: Emma or Hannah?
in reply to a message by dreaming2b
I love Emma.
It is short without sounding nick namey, it works in many languages, it has a round, soft sound and feeling to it, it goes well with tons of middle names, there is no gender confusion, or confusions about spelling. It is classy without seemingly "belonging" to upper, middle or working class, it has history but feels modern.... I could praise it 'til the cows come home (but won't use it myself due to its overwhelming popularity).
Hannah - I wish I could give you as many reasons for why I don't like Hannah, but I can't, I just really don't like it.
It was a rather common, boring name when I grew up (and the Hannah's I knew weren't very nice). I'm sorry that I can't tell you more specifically what it is about it, I just really dislike it.
