I'm amused by there being a Rory and an Amelia - very Doctor Who. (For a couple years there was a couple on the show with those names.)

I like all three names. Ophelia "Ophy" is super cool.

I named my dog Rory :-)

---

Ophelia is one of my top ten favourite girls names.

Amelia is very pretty but so popular where I live.

Amelia is growing on me, but I think I prefer Emilia. Ophelia/Ophy is kind of stupid. Rory is cute, and I like Blake better on a girl.

Great names, especially Rory on a boy. I've never been the biggest fan of Ophelia. But I think if I met a real one it's the kind of name that could instantly turn me into a mega-fan. The nn Ophy is flat-out adorable.

Rory is nice. I taught a young Rory a few years ago and at our old house we had a neighbour named Rory.
I love Amelia - even if it is really popular.
Ophelia is one of those that I appreciate on other people's children, even if I would never go near it myself.

Those are great names. I do know quite a few people called Rory so a bit common but it is still a lovely name. Amelia is one of my favourite names I think its beautiful. I have never met an Ophelia before I have always loved the name but thought that because it is so associated with Hamlet and Ophelia in that story ended up with her drowning I worry that people will think its weird having a daughter called Ophelia, pity when that happens it puts me off names I like. I admire the choice of name and the nickname is cute,
