I have to agree with you DH and say Emerson is a boys name espically when paired with James. KeyD made a good point to when you add James to both names it sounds very boy! I like the 2 middle names to make it a lot more girl!!! GOd Bless in the decision you make and i am so sorry to hear about your Father!

i think both emerson and hadley sound like boys names espcially when combined with the name james. How about 2 middle names? hadley catherine-james?

I personally love the name Emerson for a girl but Hadley is cute too! Good choices I think James goes well with either choice = )
