Pammie

Pammie is a diminutive form of Pamela, which originated in the 16th century when the English poet Sir Philip Sidney created it for his prose work "Arcadia." The name means "all sweetness" or "all honey" from the Greek elements "pan" (all) and "meli" (honey). Pammie emerged as an affectionate nickname in the mid-20th century when Pamela reached peak popularity. While less common as a formal given name, Pammie maintains a cheerful, friendly quality that reflects its honey-sweet etymology. Though its usage has declined since the 1970s, it retains nostalgic charm and continues to be used occasionally as both a nickname and given name.

Pronounced PAM-ee.
