[Opinions] Amalia
I had a dream last night where I had a baby and named her Amalia. I woke up thinking about how random it was considering I've never given this name a second thought but it has been on my mind all day. It is a little frillier than my usual style but I think I really like it.
WDYT of Amalia? Do you think it would always get mistaken for Amelia? I really hate the name Amelia.
Combo suggestions?

How about Amedea / Amadea (ahm-ə-DAY-ə)? It has a similar feel, but isn't as close to Amelia.

I absolutely hate Amelia but love Amalia. I used to worry about it being mistaken for Amelia too, but I have a little girl in one of my classes named Amalia and have never heard one of the other kids mispronounce her name or have felt the urge to say Amelia. I think said out loud they sound a lot more different than one would think. She's sometimes called Mali, but I think that's adorable too. Anyway, yeah, I just really like this name. Combos later.
It's a good name, I like it.
I also dislike Amelia. So mealy.

I've never cared for Amalia. I really hear the word "maul" in it, and it reminds me of Somalia.
I think people would grasp that Amalia is not Amelia eventually, but, yes, I do think it would be mistaken for Amelia more often than you would like, especially considering Amelia's growing popularity. If you hate Amelia that much, Amalia would probably be a risky choice.

I never liked it, because it sounds like "I'll maul ya."
