History and Origin
Amelia is a female given name. It is a variant of Amalia, derived from the Germanic word amal meaning work', 'industrious' and 'fertile'. The variant form Amelie is derived from the French equivalent, Amélie. Diminutive forms include Amy, Emma, Milly and Mel.
Etymologists believe that the name Amelia/Amalia is unrelated to the Latin gens name Aemilia, which was translated into English as Emily. Equivalents of Aemilia/Emily in romance languages do sound similar to Amelia (e.g. Italian Emilia) but have a different origin from this Germanic name.
English: probably the result of a cross between the Latin-origin Emilia (see Emily) and the Latinized Germanic Amalia. Its first use seems to have been in the English-speaking world, by Henry Fielding for the heroine of his novel Amelia (1751)
