What is the meaning of the name Amie ?

The baby name Amie is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced English: AY-mee (/ˈeɪmi/),French: ah-MEE ([a.mi]).

Amie is French in Origin.

Amie is an English and French feminine given name, a variant spelling of Amy and the French Aimée. It descends from Old French Amée/Aimée, carried by the medieval vernacular into England, and ultimately from Latin amata, "beloved," related to amare, "to love." The spelling also coincides with modern French amie, "female friend," which reinforces the affectionate sense. As a result, Amie conveys the dual nuances of beloved and friend.

The name circulated in medieval records in forms such as Amee and Amye, faded, and then reappeared in the 18th–19th centuries under renewed French influence. In the late 20th century it rode the broader popularity of Amy, gaining extra visibility in the 1970s. Common variants include Amy, Aimee, Aimée, Amée, and Amye; related cognates by meaning are Amata (Latin/Italian) and Amada (Spanish/Portuguese). Diminutive-style spellings like Ami also occur.
