Emmelia is a first name for girls.
… it’s a special occasion. That’s because the name Emmelia is quite rare in the US. While it’s still a name in use, lately, only approximately 2 out of 100,000 girls have been named Emmelia.

It is not so easy to find a woman or girl named Emmelia in the USA. Although the name is not sooooo rare overall, it is only at home in a few selected regions of the USA. In the entire United States there are currently a total of 36 women and girls named Emmelia, but there are vast areas of the country where not a single person with this name can be found. In fact, the 36 women and girls named Emmelia live in no more than 6 different states, including for example California, Michigan, New York, Texas and Washington. In all other 43 states, there are no – or, to be precise, less than a handful – women called Emmelia. (To explain: The official statistics provide the data per state only if at least five women with a specific name live in the same state. So, it’s quite possible that there are one or two states where someone with the name Emmelia lives although the name is not listed in the official statistics. Should you be one of those rare people whose name is Emmelia and you live outside the states highlighted on the map, please let us know so we can improve our statistics.). The state with the most girls and women named Emmelia relative to its female population is Washington. And even there, only one in 393,606 women and girls would raise her hand if you asked, who is called Emmelia.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter E is neither particularly common nor particularly rare as a first letter for girls' names: 3.9% of all common girls' names in the US begin with this letter. The most common first letters of girls' names, by the way, are A, S and M, while U, X and Q are the least common initials of girls' names.
With seven letters, the name Emmelia has a typical length for first names in the US. In fact, 26% of all common first names consist of exactly seven letters. 52% of all first names are shorter, while 22% have eight letters or more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
That means that with 3.9%, E as the first letter in girls' names is almost as common as all 26 letters on average - and of all the girls' names that start with an E, Elizabeth is the most common.
If your name is Emmelia and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
