Lotti
Lotti Origin and Meaning
Lotti is a feminine name primarily used as a diminutive of Charlotte, which ultimately derives from the Germanic name Karl, meaning 'free man.' This charming nickname has roots across several European cultures, particularly popular in German, Scandinavian, and Italian communities. Lotti conveys a playful, affectionate quality while maintaining a distinct identity. Unlike the more common diminutive 'Lottie,' the spelling with an 'i' ending gives it a slightly more continental European flair. While never extremely common as a standalone name in English-speaking countries, Lotti has maintained a steady presence, appealing to parents who appreciate its sweet, vintage charm. The name evokes a spirited, friendly personality with its lilting sound and diminutive nature.
