Millicent

Millicent is an elegant and somewhat vintage name with French and German roots. Derived from the Old Germanic 'Amalindis', it blends the elements 'amal' (work) and 'lind' (gentle, soft). Though not commonly heard today, it enjoyed popularity in the early 20th century. The name conveys a sense of strength and determination. Famous Millicents are few, but it stands out for its classic and sophisticated charm. Common nicknames include Millie and Milly, lending a lighter touch to its more formal full version.
