Lillie-mae

Lillie-mae Origin and Meaning

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

Lillie Mae combines two classic feminine names to create a charming double name with Southern American charm. Lillie is a variant spelling of Lily, which derives from the flower symbolizing purity and innocence in many cultures. Mae (also spelled May) typically references the month of May, associated with spring, renewal, and growth. The combination has a distinctly vintage, rural American feel, evoking images of simpler times. Popular in the early 20th century, Lillie Mae experienced a decline mid-century before seeing renewed interest as part of the revival of nostalgic, grandmotherly names. The name carries a sweet, unpretentious quality with musical and literary associations, including several notable blues and country music performers.
