Emmelie, of Germanic origin, is a feminine given name derived from the Old High German elements 'amal' meaning 'work' and '-hild' which signifies 'battle'. It is a variant spelling of Amalie, which itself is a form of Amelia. The name has gained popularity in recent years, particularly in Scandinavian countries.
Between 2002 and 2008, the name Emmelie was given to 24 babies. The highest number of Emmelies born in a single year was seven, which occurred twice - once in 2002 and again in 2008. There were also two years with five births each: 2006 and 2007.
