Meaning and background

The story behind Amélie

Amélie is the French form of Amelia, and its written acute accent belongs to that French spelling. The pronunciation in French is approximately ah-may-LEE without the German pattern of stress recorded for unaccented Amelie. Both names ultimately connect to the Germanic Amalia family, but the French pronunciation and exact spelling deserve their own profile. The accent should be preserved if it is part of the original dog’s name.

Origin
French form of the feminine name Amelia, related to Germanic Amalia. Source
Pronunciation
French /a.me.li/. Source
