Re: Mimmy
Mimi (with the same pronunciation) is used as a given name and nickname in Germany, and there is a well known song by Bill Ramsey 'Ohne Krimi geht die Mimi nie ins Bett'. It is a short form of something, but that something is given as Wilhelmine, Margarete, or Emilie here: https://www.beliebte-vornamen.de/9619-mimi.htm and I can imagine more names like Marie or Maria to be occasionally the source of Mimi.
