About Saimi

Saimi is a sharp but sweet variation of Saima, which is in turn derived from Saimaa, the name of the largest lake in Finland. The meaning of the name is unknown, with linguists suggesting it might come from a now lost ancient language, or perhaps from the word sápmi , meaning "of the Sami people", and Indigenous people living in Norway, Finland and Sweden. Saimi currently ranks in the Finnish Top 50.

Pronounced SY-mee.

As of October 2026, Saimi ranked #5215 for girls in US births in 1917 SSA, peaked at #1671 for girls in 1905.
