I like this name, it's not extremely popular but not too exotic either, the nickname Emmy is cute.

I prefer this spelling to Emery, because that spelling is the same as emery board (nail file). I used to live on Emory Lane, which is sort of like "going down memory lane." It seems more like a male name to me, but I wouldn't be surprised to meet a woman or girl named Emory, given its similarity to the way-too-popular names Emily and Emma.

Wouldn't this be pronounced em-O-ree instead? That makes more sense when you use this spelling.

I actually think Emory is a nice name for any gender. People seem to think it's a male name, but it seems to actually be more popular among females. I personally prefer this spelling over Emery, but either way I think this name works well for any gender regardless.

This spelling reminds me too much of the word, memory. I prefer the spelling of Emery and this name ONLY for a boy. I do not like it on a girl at all.

My first name is Emory. I have always hated it as everyone always thought I was a boy. Most definitely I am not! To make matters worse, my middle name is Lou. So family called me Emmy Lou. How painful! I was named after both grandmothers. In recent times I have learned that my English immigrant family had passed the name Emory down for 200 years. Now I carry the name with pride. BTW, I have met several people who have named their babies Emory. I guess if you wait long enough, you can learn to be proud of what you were named.

I've always known Emory/Emery to be a man's name. A few years ago, my favorite cousin named her daughter Emory. I was heartbroken. It's a terrible name for girls.

I recently named my son Emory! Please don't name your daughters this- it's so hard when so many cute boys names are taken over by girls!

Aside from the fact that an emory board is something you use to file your nails down, I think this is a really good boy's name.

It is an emery board, not an emory board. Emery is a very hard rock type used to make abrasive powder.

The name is much nicer on a boy than a girl, I think, but either way it also makes me think of Scooby Doo saying "Emily".

I do like this name. I could see it being on a girl definitely! I think it would actually be prettier on a girl more than a boy.
