Emily vs. Amelia vs. Amalia

My husband really likes Emily, but I feel it’s too common and (perhaps) geared more toward my generation than my daughter’s. I’m trying to come up with an alternative that may not be as common. Suggestions?

The Top Baby Name is...

Emily

35%

Amelia

47%

Amalia

18%

Emmeline or Amelia...my name is Emily and I hate how common it is. I wish I had a more original name, I think it would fit me better. I have met tons of Emilys from the 80s and this generation

Emmeline.... or at least spell it Emmaleigh, so at least her spelling won’t be popular

I am a fan of the name Amelia; however, it is gaining popularity.
