Reply Jess Jun 15 at 10:51 pm He’s the reason I’m a mama! My 1st born…my first boy! I loved this name the first time I heard or saw it. Stole it from the poet, Ralph Waldo Emerson! Reply Samantha Jan 3 at 12:11 pm I’ve only ever met one Emerson in my life, so the name was a good choice for us and met the criteria of being unique. We wanted a three syllable name to match his brother’s name and it can be shortened to Em or Emmy when they’re little. We live in Germany though and have often been asked if we named him “Amazon” which is incredibly annoying but comes from the pronunciation here. Reply HEATHER Dec 15 at 6:29 pm My daughter is Emily She is having a boy We’ve always called her Em So, “Emerson” seemed appropriate .. Em’s son Reply Kait Jun 8 at 1:20 pm Just sort of found the name and fell in love. Reply Kentrena May 4 at 11:25 am In reverence of Ralph Waldo Emerson Reply Jessikah Mar 22 at 3:58 am I was reading poems and saw they were by Ralph Waldo Emerson. I fell in love with the name. I had Emerson when I was 23. Born in February. Reply Samantha Auteri Aug 19 at 12:07 am I loved the name Emerson right from the get go. I think it’s masculine yet still cute, unique enough that he won’t have ten other kid in his class named the same and just overall a nice sounding name. That being said, we live in Germany and it is for some reason veryg difficult to speak for native Germans. I continually get asked if we named our child “Amazon”. Even though there are many famous men (race car driver, musical group, etc) in the past with the name it comes across weird to some people.
