Meaning & origin
Mee is an exceptionally rare name in the United States, first recorded in 1925. It has never appeared in the top 1000 names and has consistently registered fewer than five annual births. The name reached its peak usage in 1983, though even that year saw only a handful of occurrences. Its trajectory has been stable at a very low frequency, with no significant revival in any decade. The name's origins are unclear; it may be a phonetic spelling of the Chinese name Mei or a clipped form of longer English names. Because of its extreme rarity, Mee has no association with any particular state or region in the U.S.
