-<strong>Emilia</strong>-<br />

(My mom and Dad picked my name because someone in my mom’s dream<br />

was named Emily. They didn’t name me that, because the variation <strong>Emilia</strong> is more<br />

unique. If I was a boy my name might have been Ethan). <strong>Emilia</strong> has Latin origins.<br />

It means to strive, to excel, or to rival. It originally comes from the name Aemilia.<br />

Common Variations of the name are, Amelia, Emelia, Emily, Amilya, <strong>Emilia</strong>na,<br />

and Amilia. Aemilia is the feminine form of the latin name Aemilius. Which<br />

means to rival, excel, or to emulate. <strong>Emilia</strong> represents me because I strive in being<br />

a better person. I excel in 6th grade math and in accelerated 5th grade. I also rival<br />

sometimes with my sister.<br />
