[Opinions] Aimee and Amy
Replies
I've always loved this name, but only with the spelling Amy. I don't think it's too dated and would find it to be sweet and different on a little girl these days. I pronounce them the same, but prefer the spelling and look of Amy.
I've always liked Amy. I think it's a dated classic, if that's not an oxymoron. It was so popular in the 70s and 80s, it's difficult to appreciate its old-fashioned, Little Women-ish charm.
I don't care for Aimee or Aimée. It should be pronounced differently, but every Aimee I've known has pronounced it just like Amy. It seems pointlessly fussy.

It's an okay name, doesn't strike me any which way. It's hard to imagine a middle aged woman named Amy though. I pronounce Amy and Aimee differently but I've never known an Aimee and I know a lot of people in America pronounce them the same. Seems kind of silly to choose a French spelling and not pronounce it as such, but to each their own.
I don't like extra letters, so I'd choose Amy over Aimee any day. I know 1 Aimee and 2 Amy's. No strong feelings on the name. I'd prefer it as a nickname for Amelia or something like that.
prefere spelt Aimee
i think its pretty

I think they're both dated but I prefer the Amy spelling. My niece is Aimee Elisabeth (teenager) and has had issues with her spelling although I think she has come to appreciate it. BTW, it's pronounced the same as Amy. I have known several other women named Amy, most of whom are in their 20s and 30s.
I love Amy! I don't think she's dated at all; I don't know if it's because I have a great-grandmother named Amy Victoria, but I see her as a classic. Sweet, feminine yet packs a punch in just three letters.
I grew up with a few Amys, and there's an Aimee in my peer group. I prounounce them the same.
I love Amy as a nn for Amelia, too.
