EmiliaI've never been able to like Amelia. It brings to mind oatmeal.Emilia is somehow edgier without losing a drop of class.

Ohh....hard oneBut.. I think for me... I like Amelia. It seems friendlier and more approachable than Emilia. Emilia is royal and a little lofty-sounding, with a touch of a dark edge, while Amelia is classy, but somehow more down-to-earth and wholesome, lighter than Emilia somehow.Amelia is a lovely name, one of my faves!

Very tough!I consider them completely different names, and like them each in their own right. I think I like Amelia better though, it just feels better.

Keeping in mind that, on sight, I pronounce Amelia as "uh-meel-yuh" and Emilia as "eh-mee-lee-uh"...I prefer Amelia.

Emilia. I know I'm in a minority here, but I don't see what's the big deal about Amelia. Ok, it's not a bad name, but it's not so wonderful either.

Amelia no contest. Emilia just looks like an elaborate form of Emily.

Amelia. Classic, and very nice name. Emilia is really boring and I don't like the look of it. It's also very common here.

Amelia! Prefer Emily over Emilia, really. Still, both very pretty names. I love the nn Millie / Milly with both.

I love both, but lately I've been loving Emilia more. I think I prefer the way it looks. :)

I like both ok, but I think i prefer Emilia because it has more of a spanish/italian feel. Amelia is more appealing to my eye though.

I much prefer Emilia. I really dislike Amelia for some reason.

I know this might seem silly, but Amelia seems like a wholesome sunny day to me, while Emilia seems like a skinny, sickly Mediterranean woman.
