seen on facebook: Emalyn. ugh. I'm assuming it's pronounced like Emma-lynn, but I could be wrong.

also, do you prefer Eli or Elijah?

I prefer Elijah, but only a little. I think just Eli is nice, too. I know an Eli David and an Elijah Christopher.

I like both but I prefer Eli. (Mostly because it could also be a nickname for Elias, which I've fallen in love with recently)

Eli. I love Eli. Elijah is already. Elliott is better than both. =)

I don't know what "Elijah is already" means but I meant to say Elijah is alright.

Ugh is right. What's wrong with Emmeline? It looks much nicer. Spelled that way it looks too close to Emlyn, so it seems masculine.

I prefer Elijah nn Eli because Eli is too nicknamey to be a full name, I think. My nephew's name is Elijah nn Eli.

I prefer Elijah with the nickname Eli, but I like Elias muuuuch more. Elias is #2 on our list of boy names.

Eli. I really don't like Elijah. Or any of the other names that Eli would be a nickname for.

I prefer Eli. Elijah is not bad, but I like just Eli much better.

A friend from high school has two girls, one's named Emmylynne. It bugs me for several reasons. I keep thinking it should be a palindrome, but it isn't.

Also, Eli. It's crisper to me.

Elijah is better. Eli could be used as a nickname.

I prefer Eli. It's one of my favorites. Never been a huge fan of Elijah.
