In the early 1982❀️s I was named after an Amelia who at the time was in her late 50❀️s. To me it was always a grandma name & I hated it. I know of 2 other girls that were named after her and I knew an Amelia at school when I was about 12. Other than that I never met another Amelia until ❀️everyone❀️ started naming their babies ❀️old fashioned❀️ names. I have always been called Amy. When'the name'started becoming popular someone asked if I was going to start going by Amelia. No. I still don't like the name. Someone was once so excited to tell me they named their baby Amelia ❀️just like❀️ me & being a little too honest, I said ❀️I'm sorry❀️. I don't hate it for othe's anymore, but I do hate when anyone calls me Amelia.

My name is Amelia and People almost ALWAYS call me Amanda ... That, or they butcher the pronunciation since they never really hear it. i've had people pronounce it in various ways, the most annoying, perhaps, being "Ah-MUL-e-ah". Personally, It's always been frustrating when I was younger; I can never find things with my name on them, and perhaps this is just me, but it always made me feel strange or weird partially because no one else ever'shared my name and mine always sounded so different than everyone else's. Another thing was that when I was younger, there was no end to the jokes about me being stupid, because my name was Amelia- I share the name of a [not so smart] popular children's book character; "Amelia Bedelia." Part of the reason why I got so much ridicule for it could have been because I have a last name that'starts with "B" and that is similar to "Bedelia", but just the'same, I remember how much it bothered me as a child. The other thing is that as a kid, people used to assume I was strange because my name was "strange". It hasn't been until recently in High School when people actually started complimenting me on it, and giving me positive comments/compliments on it. However, now I don't mind it as much, and seeing as how i have rarely ever'seen another person with my same name, I kind of like it because it makes me feel more unique. =) That's just me though and my personal experience, so take from it what you will =)

My name is Amelia and I'm 15 years old. My mom got my name off a headstone in a cemetary when she was taking a walk there. When I was in Elementry kids would call me "Amelia Bedelia" which for a while made me hate it. I usually go by Mae because when I was learning how to talk it was to hard for me to say so I would call myself Mae and It'stuck. Over all I would say Amelia is an okay name. Just don't call them 'Milly' or 'Leah'. I hate that...

Most people call me Emelia rather than Amelia, even if they know how it is spelt, i am not sure why! People often leave of the first 'a' so i get melia a lot, as well as millie and meals (never mia or minnie).

I also got teased with the character, "Amelia Bedelia" but that was grade school. Friends in my past always pronounced my name as Emily or Amanda or misspelled it, but I corrected them. Hadn't met another Amelia until the other day at the library. I'm glad the name is making a comeback in the younger generation. The name'stands out from the other names and people always comment about Amelia Earhart when'they first meet me. I love it.

My daughter's name is Amelia. She is named in part for one of her grandmothe's whose middle name was Amelia, and in part because we think it is a beautiful name. Like othe's, she has been called Amanda and Emily a lot; however, as Amelia is becoming more popular, she doesn't get her name mispronounced too much any more. Her nickname is Millie and my pet name for her is Milz. She likes Millie, but will only let me call her Milz because she considers Milz to be a special name meant just for us.
