But...everyone assumes people are having kids in the next few years. If she doesn't have kids for another 8+ years the nickname may have come on gone on the popularity scale. You could have teenagers or young adults named Emme/Em but not newborns. For some people, thats okay.
For example, when I first started posting here everyone was naming their little girls Isabel and Sophia so every comment I got was, "she will have to be Sophia S in her class" or "Isabel is so popular, I hate it." Well, what they didn't know was that this would be for hypothetical children which may not exist for (so far its been almost 9 years since those postings) another 10+ years. I had no intention of giving kids those names if I had them at that time.
By the time I use them, if I use them, they will likely no longer be popular. I met a newborn Isabel recently and hadn't met another since that big boom many years ago.

Very true, but its only a nn so it doesn't bother me. The full name is plenty unusual, so if it bother (hypothetical) Emmy in the future, she could always go exclusively by Emmélise. NN's are not set in stone.
