My son was named Emory 2 years ago and my daugther is Quinlan Adair….I originally wanted to name our son Emerson – my husband wanted Rory – so we googled Emerson and a site said that Emerson was derived from Emory – so we thought it was a good combo of Emerson and Rory = Emory – -

It’s funny how people feel when they name their child something that it’s “their” name and no one else should use it!!

My 4 daughters are Jannalyn, Saylor, Tamryn, and Lynna. They all have unique names. Saylor’s middle name is Emery.

onlyscotia- I don’t think it’s fair to say that celeb kids with unusual names are going to grow up to hate their parents because they gave them such weird names. For all we know, some if not all of those celeb kids may end up LOVING their unqiue names! I also don’t think it’s fair to say that celebs give their kids weird names because they’re thinking: “let’s compete with each other for the most out of this worlds kids name”.

While that may be the case with some celebs, it seems like most of the time the celebs choose baby names that have very special meaning to them. For example, Knox Jolie-Pitt was named after his great-grandfather, and Sunday Urban’s maternal grandparents suggested her first name.

Compared to others celebs kids her choice of names are positively normal (and pretty). At least her kids won’t grow up hating her cause she’s given them stupid “let’s compete with each other for the most out of this worlds kids name” name

You are all going on and on about Emery actually being a boys name but that may be the case where you live but I live in the Netherlands and I know two girls/women named Emery. And I have NEVER ever heard of a boy with that name. All I’m trying to say is that it’s just how you look at it, just because you say it’s a boys name doesn’t mean it is!
So I would say it can be for a BOY OR A GIRL.

Finley, Avery, and Emery are NOT boys’ names. They are UNISEX names, just like Leslie, Lynn (I even once knew a man named Lynn!), Ashley (while more common for girls, it started off as a boys’ name and is now used on both genders), Aubrey (same as with Ashley), Jordan, Kelsey, Jaimie, etc.

It is not an unusual name…particulary because we named OUR baby girl “Emery Hope” on July 17th of this year.

Emery is a boy's name!! For some reason people think it's trendy for a girl but it's not!
