Girl name · 92 babies recorded · 1974–2025
Mylie: 92 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 14 births in 2012.
Mylie is a modern variant of Miley, which itself likely derives from a nickname for Emily or Amelia, or from the Irish name Maolie meaning "disciple" or "devotee". Its rise in popularity owes much to American singer Miley Cyrus, whose fame popularised the sound despite the slightly different spelling. While no specific places share the name, Mylie has become a familiar choice among Scottish parents in recent decades, reflecting broader naming trends influenced by pop culture. The name also shares phonetic roots with Millie and Milly, and its streamlined spelling gives it a fresh, contemporary feel that appeals to those seeking a trendy yet accessible name for their daughter.
