So pretty.
I do think this name is a good variant to Aimee or the extremely overused Amy. Although, I recently met a very annoying girl with the name who sorta ruined it for me. If you like this name, go with it, I am personally not a fan of names like Amee, Emma or Ella because they are so bland and don’t stand out. After all that is just my opinion.
Amy is not extremely overused, go and get your facts right, in 2019, King was a more popular name than Amy, and if you call Amy overused, you should compare it to the name Mia.
This name may be out of use in France these days, but it is currently in use in the Netherlands, where it has been a rare name so far: in 2014, there were only 48 living bearers (of all ages) in the entire country.- http://www.meertens.knaw.nl/nvb/naam/is/Am%C3%A9e (in Dutch)

AMÉE (Medieval French)
AIMÉE (Modern French)
AMY (English)I am English and my name is spelt as a form of the Old French name Amée
Meaning "BELOVED" (modern French aimée), a vernacular form of the Latin Amata.


As an English name, it was in use in the Middle Ages (though not common then) was revived in the 19th century and I have only ever come across Amy's or Aimee's in my time.
Amee is not only a lovely meaning, but the medieval times were a little different than this day and age and I love that. On a personal level it's nearly always raised spelling issues, such like my mother has missed out the "I" but as my surname is also really French (Lyons) I feel that my mum matched my names together well. Unfortunately I'm yet to discover any French within my family history nor have I met an Amee with a double ee. From Amee Lyons.
