Emma

Emma is a fashionable name, popular in England, Germany, and Finland. Evolved from: Erminitrude, Irmengarde, Irmen, and Ermen...Medieval words How sweet the sound that classic name: Emma, universally preferred. She thrives as a high-powered problem solver graced by creativity. Happy is she when she shares her art or sings a sweet melody. An Emma has the will to lead and the strength to persevere. Perhaps, that’s how the West was won, a prophet’s wife, a pioneer! Across the Great Plains, with strength applied, fear forged that westward trail. Her martyred husband kept the faith for which he and others died. But Emma Smith, true to her God found safety; fortitude fully applied.
