Amelia-Grace

Girl name · 30 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Amelia-Grace: 30 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 4 births in 2015.

A modern hyphenated name blending two classics, Amelia-Grace pairs the Germanic Amelia, from *Amal* meaning “work,” with the Latin Grace, meaning “favour” or “thanks.” Its most iconic bearers are pioneering aviator Amelia Earhart and Hollywood royalty Grace Kelly, later Princess of Monaco. While no specific place shares this exact compound, the two roots appear globally: the Amal line gave rise to the Amali dynasty, and Grace appears in countless churches and towns, such as Gracehill in Northern Ireland. This double-barrelled choice surged in popularity in Scotland from the 1990s onwards, reflecting a broader trend for combining traditional names into a distinctive, lyrical whole that feels both timeless and contemporary.
