Here in Utah the name Emma is way over'sed, and has its roots in Emma Smith, first wife of the founder of the Mormon Church. For those of you who are no familiar with their lore, just think Mary to the Catholics = Emma to the Mormons lol

First of all, I hate the way Emma sounds. My voice is such so that it always sounds like I have a cold, so it sounds like Ebba when I say it. My appreciation of the name comes from the meaning entirely, and what a meaning it is! The best. I truly couldn't have named anyone better in this regard. In the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson, "To believe your own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all men, -- that is genius." I do not take "whole" to mean complete or entire necessarily, but rather as the idea that all of the implements of finding universal truth are *included in the package.* This name alone says what I most want to say every day: that within the individual is humanity, entirety. It's whatever we're dying to say I guess, by definition, our 'latent conviction.' This alone is human.

I named my daughter Emma. She was born in 2011. My husband is English and it is very popular there as well as Gemma. I preferred Emma so we named her Emma Rose. Apparently, Jennifer Aniston;s character on Friends had a baby and named her Emma....that made it extremely popular. I have not met another Emma yet but I'm sure we will. She loves her name!
