Share Your Thoughts 9 Comments Rachel Oct 17 at 4:40 am We love how it’s gender neutral and it fit well with our last name. We liked that it sounds a little literary and it’s not a super common name. Reply Kaitlin Jun 15 at 6:30 pm I first heard when a female customer came into my store and said that was their name. I didn’t know at the time that it was a unisex name. I love the meaning “brave, powerful”. We plan to use the nickname Emmie, which means “whole”. There’s something about a female name that means attributes that are stereotypically associated with males, that I love. Reply Ruth Ann Dec 10 at 3:10 pm I love boy names for girls names 🙂 from the moment I heard Emerson I knew it was the one. Reply David Range Oct 21 at 7:29 pm My son is named Emerson . He is a descendant of Ralph Waldo Emerson and family. It’s his grandmothers maiden name. It means son of emery so it’s originally a boys name but common for girls now also. I chose it half because of his lineage and half because I liked it and his brothers name is Harrison so they sound good together . Reply Corrie Feb 19 at 10:16 pm We chose Emerson because of all the amazing poetic quotes by the author and because it means “brave” and we love that for our little girl Reply Ashly Feb 6 at 12:49 pm We loved that Emerson means “brave, powerful” Reply Nicole Nov 20 at 3:51 pm Not too common. We both liked it, long and short. Cute short names with Em or Emmy ? Middle name Bexley. Last name Gau. Reply Angela Sep 4 at 1:16 pm I love that this name means string and brave. It has now become unisex and can be professional yet feminine when we call her Eme. In the end we just knew she was going to be Emerson Jane. Reply Glynnis Apr 11 at 12:29 pm We made our minds up pretty early that our girl name was Emmy, but I wanted something more substantial and for Emmy to be short for something so we decided on Emerson. We love it and it suits our little lady so well! Reply Share your thoughts on the name Emerson Cancel ReplyYour email address will not be published.
