About 1 girl in 9,399 born in 2025 was given one of these spellings — against 1 in 14,612 for Emmarie itself.
Spellings are grouped by a fixed rule that folds interchangeable English spellings of one sound (ck/k, ph/f, x/ks, a non-initial y for i) and keeps vowels apart, so Sean and Shawn stay separate names. It errs towards splitting: a family here is never larger than the truth. SSA national data, 2025. Method

The Baylie test

Emmarie's later chapters haven't been written yet, so we borrowed them: Baylie climbed just as high around 1997, and its whole arc is on record. Line the two peaks up, and Baylie's path sketches the road Emmarie is walking now.

- Mary's own meaning is genuinely unrecovered.
