[Opinions] Re: WDYT of Emmylou?
in reply to a message by Array
I know of an Emmi, which is not a nn. Since you abhor Emma and Emily, I can't see you using as Emmy or Emmylou as nn's for anything. So in your case, I can't see why Emmylou as a formal name is a bad thing. :b I personally couldn't get past the backwoods/hick association, but it's still a hell of a lot better than McKynzie or somesuch.

Just had a thought...(m)I know, scary, right? LOL. What about the initials M.E. and the middle name Louise, Louanne, Lucille, etc. She could still be called Emmylou, but her full name would be, for example, Magnolia Elanor Lucille nn Emmylou. Whaddya think?
