None of them sound very feminine.

I actually kind of like Embry, but I guess I'm weird lol. No new suggestions other than what's already been posted, and we would have chosen Emmaline/Emmeline (hadn't officially decided) if we were having a girl.

Emery is the only one I like out of those (though I think I like the Emory/Emorie spellings better).

I have no other "E" name suggestions, lol. I don't have any on my list, and don't actively look at them unless I have to, cause my name starts with an E.

I knew a girl in either middle school or high school named Ember- it was odd but didn't seem too masculine or anything. She was quirky so it worked for her. I don't like the other ones you mentioned.

Other names:

Eden
Elana
Eleanor
Eloise
Elyse
Emerald
Esme (I've loved this for awhile, but I personally would hold off to see if Twilight is going to have an influence.)

ok, ok: other E names that I personally enjoy:

Ebba
Edie
Eva
Ella
Ellen
Emeline
Elodie
Emily
Emma
Esther
Eudora
Eugenia

I love Ember, it has really grown on me! I particularly like it because my best friend is Amber, so I like the idea of a baby named Ember to honor her.

emery board? embry...o? sorry, they just don't seem like names to me.

i like ember, but i think she'd always get called amber. which i also like, but still, might be annoying?

i really like the suggestion of esme. emmy wouldn't be TOO much of a stretch from esme, at least as an affectionate pet name if not an official nickname.

wasn't your original choice emaline? i think if that's the one you love the most, you should go for it. :)
