Dame Origin and Meaning

The name Dame is a girl's name meaning "woman of rank, lady".

This noble title — the female equivalent of a knight — makes an inventive choice for a daughter. More subtle than Queen or Princess, Dame is a fresh way to get in on the regal word name trend. We know of at least one female Babyberry named Dame, although it's never been given to more than five baby girls in a single year.

We've also seen Dame used as a nickname for boys, a la NBA player Damian "Dame" Lillard.
