What does the name Millie mean?
Millie is a diminutive of Mildred, Millicent and other names with the same sound, says Behind the Name. Mildred comes from the Old English name Mildþryð, “gentle strength,” from milde, “gentle,” and þryþ, “strength.” Wikipedia adds Emily, Camille, Camilla, Emilia and Amelia to the list of names Millie can shorten. Many parents now choose it as a full name in its own right.
Millie nicknames and other forms
Behind the Name links Millie with Mildred, Millicent, Amelia, Emily, Emilia and Camilla among full forms, and with Milly among English relatives. Mil is the shortest everyday form. Amelia and Emily are the most popular long names behind a Millie today.
Some famous Millies
Millie Bobby Brown, born February 19, 2004, in Marbella, Spain, to British parents, is a British actress and film producer. Wikipedia says she gained international recognition as Eleven in Netflix’s Stranger Things, earning two Primetime Emmy nominations, and in 2018 was named to the Time 100. She was the youngest person ever appointed a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, and she stars in and produces the Enola Holmes films.
Millie through the decades
Millie is back in a big way. Social Security data has it 143rd in the 1880s and 191st in the 1890s, roughly 3,490 girls in all. Behind the Name’s US chart shows it at 861st in 2010 and 73rd in 2025, its best year yet. It is even more popular in Britain: Behind the Name lists it 7th in Scotland and 36th in England and Wales in 2025.
Did you know?
The oldest Millie root goes back to an English saint. Behind the Name says Saint Mildred was a 7th-century abbess, daughter of the Kentish princess Saint Ermenburga, and that Mildred grew rare after the Norman Conquest before a 19th-century revival. Millie carries that “gentle strength” in a lighter form.

The 160 lined pages don’t come with a set layout, so she decides what it’s for. Journal, planner, class notes, recipes, travel log or doodle book all work. And with her name on the cover, nobody will mistake it for theirs.
Why personalized works
Personalized gifts show you thought about the person, not just the occasion. A notebook with Millie on the cover is affordable, useful every day and still feels special. It’s also a safe choice when you’re not sure of someone’s style, because everyone needs somewhere to write things down.
