Ella-mae Origin and Meaning

The name Ella-mae is a girl's name.

Ella has Germanic origins meaning 'fairy maiden' or 'all, completely,' while Mae (also spelled May) derives from the month of May, symbolizing spring and new beginnings. This combination gained popularity in the early 20th century, particularly in Southern regions of the United States. Ella Mae evokes a sense of sweetness and simplicity with its old-fashioned charm. The name experienced a resurgence in the early 2000s as part of the trend toward vintage names and the rising popularity of Ella as a standalone name.
