I love it, but that's probably because it's my name. I think it is a good alternative to Emily because it is an original spelling, but it still has a real meaning.
This is such a pretty name. Generally, I wouldn't like the name Emily but this is such a nice, delicate spelling that I have changed my mind about the name. I would only use this spelling though.
I personally much prefer this spelling to Emily - possibly because of my love for the aforementioned musician Emilie Autumn (Emilie Autumn are her actual first and middle name), but also because I find it classy, intriguing, pretty and that little bit more unique than Emily.
This is my best friends name and most people when first read it think it says Emile or pronounce it like Emil. I prefer the name Emilia, or Amelia more because it looks more feminine.
