Amy
- Amadee
Description:
Amadee is a feminine name with French origins, though it can also be used as a variant spelling of the masculine Amadeus. Derived from Latin elements meaning "love" or "beloved of God," Amadee carries warm, affectionate connotations. The name has an elegant, sophisticated quality typical of French-derived names, while remaining relatively uncommon in most English-speaking countries. Amadee provides a more feminine alternative to the masculine Amadeus, famous for its association with composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Despite its beautiful meaning and melodic sound, Amadee remains a rare choice, offering distinctiveness without being difficult to pronounce or spell. The name's gentle sophistication and meaningful etymology make it appealing to parents seeking something both unique and graceful.

French, diminutive of AmandaMeaning:
"much-loved"Description:
This fragrant, almond-scented name has hardly been heard in this country, which is a pity--we've loved it since John Malkovich used it for his now grown daughter.
- Ameline
Origin:
Variation of EmmelineDescription:
A variation on Emmeline, Ameline has not experienced nearly the same level of success in the US, though it was given to five girls in 2015. Whereas Emmeline lends itself to trendy nicknames Emme and Emmy, Ameline has a clearer path to the dated Amy.

- Amity
- Bellamy
Origin:
English and Irish from FrenchMeaning:
"fine friend"Description:
Bellamy is emerging as an up-and-coming girls' name, an Irish surname-y riff on the super-popular Bella series of names. While the Bella connection makes Bellamy sound a little trendier and more popular than it really is, we see the name possibly rising through the ranks for both genders in the coming years.
