What Does the Name Daisymae Mean?
Daisymae is an English compound given name whose parts mean "day's eye" and "May" (or "pearl"). Daisy comes from the English word for the flower, which descends from Old English dæges ēage, literally "day's eye," a reference to the flower's opening in daylight. Mae is an English variant of May; May can be the name of the month, from Latin Maius, or a short form of Margaret, from Greek margaritēs, "pearl." Because Daisymae is a combination of two names rather than a single inherited word, it has no separate lexical meaning beyond the senses of its parts.
Daisymae Name History & Origins
Daisymae joins two established English feminine names. Daisy began as the English flower name and was taken up as a personal name in the English-speaking world in the 19th century; it also served as a nickname for Margaret, since the French word for the daisy is marguerite. Mae developed as a spelling variant of May, a name used for the month and as a short form of Margaret. The compound's history is therefore the history of these two names rather than that of a separate root. The spaced form Daisy Mae is familiar as a double given name and as a character in the comic strip Li'l Abner, but that literary use is not the origin of the compound.
