History & Origin

From Dutch usage, the name carries the sense of one who comes from Rome, the same idea behind the Roman-rooted Romana and Romaine. The doubled 'e' ending gives it a sleek, modern Dutch look. It keeps the old Roman connection in a fresh form.

The two-syllable name ends on a soft, lifted sound that feels contemporary and light. Dutch model Romee Strijd, a former Victoria's Secret Angel, is a well-known bearer who carried the name onto international runways.

Did you know? Romee is a spelling variant of Romée, so it keeps the same core meaning of 'from Rome ' while changing the visual style.
