Ammie

Ammie is a feminine name that can be considered a variant spelling of Amy or a diminutive form of names containing 'am' sounds like Amanda or Amelia. The traditional name Amy comes from the Old French 'Amée,' meaning 'beloved,' which derives from the Latin 'amata,' having the same meaning. Ammie has a sweet, somewhat old-fashioned charm that peaked in popularity in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s, though it was never among the most common names. The double 'm' spelling gives the name a distinctive appearance while maintaining the familiar sound. Today, Ammie remains uncommon, appealing to parents who appreciate vintage-inspired names with a friendly, approachable quality.

Pronounced AM-ee.
