    • 1971 Aila Meriluoto, Peter-Peter, WSOY (1997), →ISBN, pages 151-152:
      Miksi en aikoinaan huomannut antaa omilleni tuollaisia viivallisia, vai olenko näin viehättynyt niihin vain Sinun kauttasi. Eikö Sinulla ole kaksoisnimeä? Onko Sinulla ylipäänsä toista nimeä? Minun toinen nimeni on Emilia (Miili-tädin mukaan), ilman ajatusviivaa.
    • 2017 Anni Kytömäki, Kivitasku, Gummerus →ISBN page 140:
      Emilia vaikenee, riisuu lapasen ja nyppii toisesta neulasia. Hän näyttää pehmeämmältä ja nuoremmalta kuin kaupan loisteputkivalossa, kevät on päivettänyt ihon, vaalea tukka on kihartunut lumesta huokuvassa kosteudessa. Nimikin on pieni ja sievä.
