Tammie
Meaning of Tammie
Tammie is an Anglophone female forename functioning as a diminutive of the Hebrew Tamara—literally “date palm”—thus invoking imagery of resilience and graceful fortitude, while also deriving in certain traditions from the medieval Latin-French Thomasina and thereby absorbing the Aramaic-rooted notion of “twin.” Pronounced /ˈtæmi/, its temporal distribution in Florida from 1957 through 1986 exhibits a pronounced crest in 1968 with 99 registrations (rank 82), followed by sustained attenuation to only six occurrences in 1986 (rank 191). This longitudinal dataset underscores the name’s mid-twentieth-century prominence within Anglo-American culture and provides prospective parents with empirically grounded insight into its historical resonance.
