Just wondering what you guys thought about the name Amelie??? It would be pronounced Omelee.


In the virgin islands there is a place called Charlotte Amelie, which is where I got it from. A friend named her daughter Capri after the island in Italy and I thought of it because of that. We were recently in the virgin islands and that came to mind.

I love the name Amelie, it's in my top ten, however I would pronouce it AM-eh-lee with a short 'a' sound.


I do think it is lovely however you say it though.

I would name her Charlotte Amelie, and then you wouldn't have to worry about everyone mispronouncing it.

I really like the name, but everyone will be pronouncing it wrong. If you have a unique first name try a simple middle name like Marie or Elizabeth.
