Same era, but close to Amelia
These names follow Amelia's curve too, but we left them out above because they share a first letter or an ending with Amelia. Some parents like that echo; if you do, start here.
How these were chosen
Each suggestion's share of US babies has followed a curve close to Amelia's since 1880, and its recent number of babies is within about twelve times Amelia's, so the names are in the same league. Names starting with the same letter as Amelia or with the same ending are left out, so the names go together without matching. Spellings of Amelia itself are excluded.
