History & Origin

Lovee is a modern coinage from the plain English word love, which comes down from Old English lufu. English families have used Love itself as a given name since the era when Puritan parents drew names from virtues and affections, alongside Charity, Mercy and Patience. Lovee adds the doubled -ee ending that gives Dovie and Evie their warmth. It is a straightforward word name, and we present it as such (said 'LUV-ee').

It appears only in very small numbers in the U.S. Rare, sweet, and word-name simple.

Did you know? Love has been used as an English given name since the Puritan era, when abstract virtues became names - Lovee is its softest modern descendant.
