Emmee is of French origin, derived from the Norman French 'Amée', which itself came from the Latin 'Aemilia'. The name means "rival". It was brought to England by the Normans in the 11th century and has been used sparingly since then.

The name has gained some popularity in recent years due to its vintage charm, often favored by those who appreciate uncommon names with a touch of history.
Emmee's popularity has fluctuated over the years but remained relatively consistent with an average of about five births per year between 2001 and 2015, with a slight peak in 2011 at seven births.
