Effemy

The name Effemy is a rare female name of Greek origin. Effemy is largely used in the German language. Effemy is a variant transcription of the name Euphemia. The meaning of Effemy is ‘Pleasantly spoken’ or ‘Well spoken’. According to some sources, Effemy is also used as a surname. Early medieval English is the origin of this fascinating and uncommon last name. It originates from a nickname given to someone who had previously assumed the role of the "Ivy-maid" during traditional Christmas celebrations. The Ivy-maid and Holly-boy led opposing sides in these games, which were continued in the county of Kent until the end of the 18th century, but they were afterward held on St. Valentine's Day. As shown by the listing of Martin le Yungemey in the Hundred Rolls of Sussex in 1273, the origin is from the pre-7th century Olde English word 'ifig', which means 'ivy', and 'maegeth', 'a maid', which was frequently reduced to "mey" in Middle English and applied to both boys and girls. Numerous medieval surnames gradually developed from the habitual usage of nicknames, which were frequently given in response to a role played in a miracle play, pageant, or traditional seasonal celebrations. The surname is primarily prevalent in the southern counties of England, particularly Dorset and Hampshire. It is reported under a variety of spellings, including Ivimy, Ivamy, Ivemey, Ivimey, and Ivermee.
