Hi,

I have a "Millie" in my tree. She is Irish.

What could Millie be short for?

I already have Amelia, Millicent, Mildred, Emeline, Parmelia, Melissa but I'm sure there are more possibles.

Thanks

Janet

Thanks Janet. If anyone has any suggestions for Mollie also, as the name is hard to read and could possibly be Mollie, though I think Millie is more likely. Wikipedia sats Molly was once a pet-name for Mary or Margaret.
