Isla or Emery

  • Isla
  • Emery -- my pick -- very cute -- love Ellie & Emmy!
  • Bis sister: Elinor "Ellie"
  • Last name Landenwich

You will be able to change your vote.

I like the name Isla too, but I prefer the spelling Ila.  If spelled Ila, I think it's the better fit with the more traditional Elinor.   Emery has only recently become a girl's name.

ISLA (#622 in 2008 -- first year on the list)

Gender: Feminine

Usage: Scottish

Feminine form of ISLAY
 
ILA (last on the chart in 1953 at #787.  This was #435 in 1880, and peaked in 1903 at #237)

Gender: Feminine

Usage: Indian

Means "earth" or "speech" in Sanskrit.

Thanks for voting.  Isla is my favorite and Emery is my husbands favorite.  I'll let you know when we decide.
