Meaning and background
The story behind Aimee
Aimee is an English spelling related to Amy and influenced by French Aimée. It is familiar as a given name and is commonly pronounced “AY-mee” in English, rather than necessarily with the French final vowel. Its connection to being loved is inherited through the older French and Latin name history, not an instruction about character.
