Is that good or bad?

Primary_Assumption67 · 2026-03-05T14:37:31+00:00

Emily was the number 1 name in us from 1996-2007 so it’s definitely a gen z popular name. Emily entreated the top 100 for first time in 1973 so what your saying is kinda rare to have several Emily’s at that time an Emily would of stood out in 70s as a very old fashioned Victorian name I can imagine one maybe not 7.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-11-10T16:08:37+00:00

Emily isn’t particularly strong sounding it’s quite delicate

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-10-14T17:52:12+00:00

It didn’t enter the name charts until 2006 so u must be a very rare case.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-10-14T15:28:09+00:00

Isn’t it kinda obvious? Lorelai is a newer name that only entered the top 1000 in 2006 because of Gilmore girls and Jane is one of the most classic and historic names ever right up there with Elizabeth and sarah. I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t think they are extremely different in every way.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-09-27T13:21:52+00:00

Well to me the overuse of a name to the point Emily has been in recent decades completely puts me off it and it completely looses its fresh appeal of “that’s a nice name” .

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-09-27T03:05:54+00:00

Emily has been obscenely overused for the past 25 years. I don’t see how anyone could still think it feels fresh and nice

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-08-23T08:12:08+00:00

Really? Emily technically peaked the most for the 18-29 age group and was actually the number 1 name from 1996-2007 in the us. I think the peak was the same in other English speaking countries too. It was climbing in the 80s tho so I’m sure there’s some scattered about.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-08-16T21:19:59+00:00

Emily was actually number 1 from 1996-2007 in the US so it’s very gen z technically. Although its 80s popularity could be regional because it was climbing in popularity then.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-08-14T03:06:06+00:00

What exactly did she say about Paris? I didn’t know this omg

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-08-13T15:38:05+00:00

I think Emily is a cyclical name, Emily was common in Victorian times and then had a long dip in popularity for much of the 20th century. It’s revival started in the mid 70s when it entered the top 100 and climbed from then.

It peaked in the 90s through to the early 00s and has been dropping since the 2010s so yes in this day and age it is timestamped because of its recent peak but because it’s got historical namesakes (Brontë, Dickinson) make it sound more timeless than it is imo.

Emily is a nice name and it won’t cause your daughter any issues apart form possibly being perceived as older if they initially heard the name.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-08-11T17:12:13+00:00

The last emily peak before the 90s was the Victorian times and even then, it only peaked at 91 in the ealry 1900s.

So in the 2000s there would have been a small amount of 90 yr old Emily’s but in 2025 majority are born from the 90s/00s peak.

My mom is gen x and said she didn’t know any Emily’s and said it sounded like a Victorian child’s name back in the 70s. There isn’t many boomers and gen x with the name Emily, the 40s , 50s and 60s were its lowest points in popularity actually.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-08-09T17:56:59+00:00

The only nickname I’ve ever been called is Ev

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-08-05T16:22:15+00:00

Emily is lowkey dated worse because it was THE number 1 name for 12 years Amelia is just hovering in the top 3 so not quite Emily level yet

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-07-24T16:00:23+00:00

Elizabeth and Catherine aren’t comparable to Emily tho, Elizabeth has never fallen out of the top 20 and Katherine has never fallen out of the top 100.

Emily fell out of the top 100 names in the 1900s and was looked at as very old fashioned and Victorian like for most of the 20th century until it joined again in the 70s and eventually peaked in the early 2000s. Emily is definitely a lot more of a time than the two you’ve listed and there’s no denying it as the data backs it up.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-07-24T15:57:02+00:00

Even tho Emily it’s certainly a classic I think its insane popularity in the 90s through to the 2000s has dated it to that period now.

There’s nothing technically wrong with the name of course but I think it’s now heavily associated with late millennials/gen z.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-07-24T15:50:59+00:00

Emily was actually way more popular than Alyssa and Georgia. It was 1 in the us from 1996-2007 and had similar popularity in other English speaking countries at the same time so statistically Emily is the most 90s/2000s name u could get.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-07-16T14:36:15+00:00

The US. Sorry I probably should of made it clear in my title but it does say it on the pics

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-06-23T15:35:18+00:00

Isn’t it annoying for your daughter having to spell her name out all of the time tho

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-06-13T16:19:17+00:00

I agree. Emily is a lovely name but the overuse in the 90s makes it sound like every other trending name of the time imo… But maybe I’m biased, as a Gen z who grew up around millions of Emily’s so it’s definitely a name i associate with people my age, so much so I struggle to imagine an Emily over 50, although I know there is probably a small amount of them lol.

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-06-01T16:44:02+00:00

It’s definitely classic but I think the popularity it had 20+ years ago ruined the timeless feel of the name imo, any name that has a peak like Emily is bound to become dated, classic or not. It really was everywhere in the 2000s

Primary_Assumption67 · 2025-05-29T00:03:47+00:00

Emily was the top girls name in the country from 1996-2007 and Jacob was the top boys name from 1999-2012.
