Hammie is a unisex given name of Scottish origin, derived from the Scottish Gaelic 'Amhlaidh', which means "thus" or "like that". It was traditionally used as a nickname for individuals who resembled someone else or were often compared to another person in appearance or behavior. The name has been used historically but is not particularly common today.
"Hammie is quite uncommon, with only five babies named so in 1914 and seven in the following year. It then disappears from records until 1925 when six more were born, followed by another six in 1954. Altogether, there have been 24 Hammies."
