About Lottie
Sweet Charlotte nickname Lottie might be considered a nostalgic great-grandma name that conjures up lockets and lace, and — like Nellie, Josie, Hattie, Tillie, and Milly — has considerable vintage charm. In the UK, however, it feels like a totally familiar choice, having ranked in the Top 1000 since the 90s, the Top 100 since 2014, and the Top 50 since 2023.
In the US, it was Top 100 name at the end of the 19th-century, but fell off the popularity list in 1960 with classic longform Charlotte remaining the preferred option. Now, with "nicknames-as-given-names" truly back in style, it made its reappearance in the US charts back in 2022 and has since risen to sit just outside the Top 500 in a recent year.
Sharing the meaning of Charlotte, Charles, and Caroline ("free man"), Lottie notably appears in the novel The Little Princess and in the film The Princess and the Frog.
While Charlotte is the classic full name for Lottie, you might also consider it a nickname for Loretta, Liselotte, and Ottilie. And if you love Lottie but want something less popular, there's Lettie, Dottie, Lissy, Leni, and Lolly.
Lottie is also given to boys.
Pronounced LAH-tee.
As of October 2026, Lottie ranked #528 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #75 in 1886, Nameberry popularity #235.
