I always pronounce them almost the same way (e-MEE-lee-a, uh-MEElee-a), but for some reason I much prefer Emilia to Amelia. I think I'd like Emilia even more if it was pronounced (e-MIH-lee-a). Amelia feels sort of whiny, whereas Emilia feels sweeter and more delicate. I like Amalia better than both.

Strange that Amelia would have been super popular. It seems too trendy a name to gain ground here.
