Girl Names Ending in -lie 

A cute, zippy French saint's name that's picking up in popularity there, and starting to in the US as well. Zélie originated as a short form of Azélie, thought to derive from Adelaide via the Occitan form Azalaïs. Saint Zélie was born Marie-Azélie.

Zelie

Ollie is used less often as a nickname for the mega-popular Olivia or the stylish Olive than Ellie is for Eleanor or Allie for Allison. That may be because Ollie has a much longer use as a nickname for boys. But 83 baby girls were given the name Ollie on their birth certificates in the US in 2021.

Ollie

Allie is one short form that's gotten so popular it's often used as a name on its own.  Cute, friendly, yet we'd recommend using one of the proper names such as Alice to give your daughter an option.  These days, Ellie might be more fashionable.

Allie

In European countries where it's regularly used as a form of the Amelia family of names, the pronunciation is very similar to the a-ending form, Amalia.

In the US, where Amalie is most familiar as the name of the capittal city of the US Virgin Islands, it's pronounced like Emily but with Am at the beginning. Certainly, if you use this pretty name in the US, that is the pronunciation most people will use so if you want it pronounced the European way, you'll spend a lifetime correcting either their pronunciation or their spelling or both.

Amalie

A cute nickname name that's risen high over the past decade or so, more especially as Kaylee, this name combines the attributes of Hailey and Kayla, Kylie and Callie.

Kaylie

The French Miley?  This trendy choice from Brittany, which is pronounced either as Miley or May-lee, is related to the traditional (male) saint's name Mael, traditionally feminized as Maelle.

Maelie

Unlike most creative spellings, this one isn't overly trendy or overdone—in fact, it's quite delicate and pretty. However, it is clearly suffering from the plethora of similar names that are flowing around right now (Emelie, Emilia, Emily, Emilee, Amelie, Amelia) and has fallen more than 300 spots since 2013. It might be time for Emilie and her sisters to be left alone for a while.

Emilie

Melodious and unusual form of a name with an uncountable number of variations. Many will understand it as the more down-to-earth Annalee.

Annalie

Adalie

This new/old spin on Molly -- nickname-names with the ie ending were particularly popular at the turn of the last century  -- that has landed this name in the US Top 1000.

Mollie

Attractive, underused name made famous by the heroine of The Color Purple.  Still, if you're going to go to Celie, why not go all the way to Celia or Cecelia?  You can always use Celie for short.

Celie

Though this name properly takes an accent over the first e, most Americans would probably have trouble pronouncing it with French elan.
 Ophelie is the title of a Rimbaud poem, Ophelie Davis is a French freestyle skating champ, and Ophelie Winter is a French actress and singerl.

Ophelie

French favorite gaining notice here thanks to the charming film of that name.   Although to the English-speaking ear it sounds more like Emily than Amelia, it derives from the latter which has a different origin and meaning.

Amélie

A sweet (literally) and rare nickname for Charlotte. Lollie would also work as a short form of other names with a strong L sound, such as Elizabeth, Lauren, Lola, Lorelei, and Louisa.

Lollie

Analie

Adelie

This alternate spelling of Holly is still quite popular in the UK but hasn't seen use in the US since the end of the millennium.

Hollie

Loralie

Wylie is one Celtic surname with as much appeal for girls as for boys. Wylie is ripe for spelling variations: Wiley is as appropriate as Wylie but when you spell it Wylei, as Corey Parker did for his son, you're getting into yooneek naming territory. 

Wylie

An interesting cousin of Natalie (the 'h' is silent) found in the Louisiana Cajun community, Athalie is the name of a tragedy by classic French playwright Racine.

Athalie
