Milli is a lovely girl’s name of Latin and Greek origins. Coming from the Latin word mille, it can translate to “thousand,” and may make you think of the number one million. It’ll be a while before baby starts counting, but this title can remind your little one of their endless possibilities and your innumerable love for them. It can also come from Millie, a shortened version for all sorts of different monikers to create the vibe you want. Some include the English Mildred, meaning “mild strength,” the Latin Camilla, meaning “helper to the priest,” and the Germanic Millicent, meaning “vigorous strength.” Milli is probably best known as a nickname, but stands out in its own right. Whether baby is helping those around them, or helping the people they care about, little Milli’s is a million in one!
