Amerie

US Popularity Rank: 3815

Origin: German

Meaning: Unceasing, vigorous; Brave; Ruler; At the edge of plowed land

Give baby a royal welcome with the adorable name Amerie. An admirable choice for boys or girls, some sources cite Ameria as the origin of this medieval English name. Amerie's history can be traced back through the Old French Amauri and the Gothic Amalric, meaning "unceasing," "vigorous," "brave," and "ruler." With such regal roots, it's safe to say your little monarch will make every chair their throne, but Amerie's other origins will keep baby grounded, coming from the Swiss German surname Amrein, meaning "at the edge of plowed land." As baby surveys their many successes, they'll appreciate the hard work behind each and every achievement.
