Mylie
Mylie Origin and Meaning
Mylie is a contemporary feminine name that gained popularity in the early 21st century. It can be considered a variant spelling of Miley, which itself emerged as a diminutive of the name Miles. The name has a sweet, youthful quality with its light, breezy sound and friendly 'ie' ending. Mylie received significant attention following the rise to fame of singer/actress Miley Cyrus, though the alternative 'y' spelling gives it a slightly different character. This name fits well with modern naming trends that favor soft-sounding girls' names ending in the 'lee' sound, such as Riley, Kylie, and Hailey. Parents may choose Mylie for its modern feel, its musical associations, or simply for its appealing sound. While not among the most common names, it has maintained steady usage since the 2000s.
