Help[Facts] Re: Meaning of Emily
in reply to a message by liz
I think the 'industrious' meaning of Emily / Emilia / Emilie is part of its confusion with Amelia / Amalia. They are not related but Amalia is a latinized form of the Germanic name Amala, a short form of names beginning with the element amal meaning "work".
