Ezmae

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Ezmae: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 2019.

Ezmae is a modern, graceful variant of Esme, which traces back to Old French *esmé*, meaning "esteemed" or "loved". The name first appeared in Scotland as Esme—introduced by the French-born Esmé Stewart, 1st Duke of Lennox, in the 16th century—and has since evolved into spellings like Ezmae, giving it a fresh, lyrical feel. While no famous bearers of this exact form stand out, the related Esme is well known as the beloved vampire in Stephenie Meyer's *Twilight* series. The name also shares roots with the Spanish surname Esmé, though no specific places derive from it. Ezmae offers a distinctive twist on a classic Scottish choice, blending the soft elegance of Esme with the popular "-mae" ending, making it both familiar and unique.
