While Amy is the more common form, Amie offers a distinctive alternative that has been used primarily in English-speaking countries, especially the United States.The name Amy itself derives from the Old French name Amée, meaning "beloved" (modern French aimée), which in turn comes from the Latin Amata. The Latin Amata was a feminine form of the past participle amatus, meaning "loved" or "beloved." The name was used in the Middle Ages, though not common, and was revived in the 19th century. Variants include Aimee and Ami, while related forms in other languages include Aimée (French), Amée (Medieval French), Amata (Late Roman), and Amada (Spanish).According to the 2010 United States Census, Amie is also a surname, recorded as the 40,313th most common surname in the U.S., with 543 individuals bearing it.
