Poppie-May is English in Origin.
Poppie-May pairs the floral Poppie with the vintage month-name May. Poppie is a variant of Poppy, the English flower term from Middle English popy, ultimately from Latin papaver. May refers to the month honoring Maia, and also serves as a traditional English pet form of Mary or Margaret.
Hyphenated given names of this style are common in Britain, where Poppy rose sharply from the 1990s and now ranks highly. Variants include Poppy-May, Poppy-Mae, Poppie-Mae, plus the standalones Poppy/Poppie and May/Mae. The name blends the poppy’s symbolism of remembrance and consolation - notably in Commonwealth culture - with May’s associations of spring renewal and warmth.
