AMY.

Amy. signifying beloved. is de
rived from the Latin amo. to love.
There IS an adjective amabilis.
meaning lovable, which gave rise TO
the feminine proper name Aimaole.
much used in early times, probably
through some complimentary allu-
sion 10 the quality which is an ad-
mirable IL sometimes rare feminine
possession.
The FIRST Aimable known 10 his
tory was the Norman heiress of
Gloucester who so strongly protest
ed against accepting even kings
son without a name. On English
lips. her rame became Amabel.
which has been handed down prac-
tically unchanged in English fam
lilies. France adopted the name, aft
er placing the stamp Of her lam
z Iage upon it. and long hOnOred a
Saint Amata or Aimee. She had
many Eamesakes. so there can be
little doubt that Norman families
are responsible for pretty simple
Amy.
England liked the name and
adopted that spelling. but France
has always clung 10 Aimee. About
the end of the seventh century the
masculine counterpart was given a
religious significance by Saint Aime,
or Amatus. a hermit Of Valais and
later Bishop OF Sion, who was per-
secuted by MerOvingian kings.
Amicia was evolved by the Eng
lish from Aimee and served as an
affected form OF Amy. just as Edythe
and Alys are used by ultrasmart
young ladies today for Edith and
Alice. The most notable instance Of
the adoption OF Amicia was tn
daughter Of the earl Of Leicester
who brought her country TO the
