What is the meaning of the name Me ?

The baby name Me is a Female name , 1 syllables long and is pronounced English: /miː/ (mee),Chinese (Mei): /meɪ/ (may),Korean (Mi): /mi/ (mee).

Me is Chinese, English, Korean, Vietnamese in Origin.

Me is an ultra-short given name pronounced “mee.” As an English word-name drawn from the first-person object pronoun, it carries a contemporary, self-referential edge; some parents read it as a nod to individuality. Cross‑linguistically, Me also arises from simplified romanization of Asian names: Vietnamese Mê (“passion, enchantment”) or Mễ (“rice; grain”), Khmer mé (a kinship term “mother,” occasionally used as a nickname), and Japanese name elements written with kanji such as 芽 “sprout, bud” or 目 “eye.” Because many of these languages use diacritics or characters, the Latin form Me can mask multiple etymologies.

As a legal first name, Me is very rare but appears intermittently in late‑20th and early‑21st‑century records, often as a gender‑neutral minimalist choice or a nickname formalized on paper. Variants and lookalikes include Mee, Mi, Mei, Mae, and May; it can also shorten names like Meera, Mercedes, or Megan.
