No!
Emily is one of the old names which have become super popular again in recent years. It might have sounded a bit old-fashioned in the 1980s, but things are very different now.
Emily Dickinson was one of the greatest poets in all of the English language – I’d be honoured to have the same name as her, if I was a woman.
