Melilot Origin and Meaning
The name Melilot is a girl's name.
Melilot is a delicate feminine name derived from a sweet-smelling herb also known as sweet clover. The plant name comes from Greek and Latin roots meaning "honey" and "lotus." This nature-inspired name carries botanical associations that evoke sweetness and fragrance. Literary enthusiasts might recognize Melilot from J.R.R. Tolkien's works, where it appears as a hobbit surname.
