French, from the 1920's:
Amélie Rachel (click Amelie), fille de Michaël (Michael) et de Thérèse (Therese). (AR daughter of M and T). If you parents were very upper class and into fashion, your first name could have been Amy, since America was very fashionable in France before 1929.Jewish, from Italy:
You would be Emma. At the synagogue, you would be called Emma bat Michael ve Tirzah (E daughter of M and T).
