It's English meaning is industrious, it's Greek meaning is Melissa (and some books say my name is Scots for Melissa), it's old French meaning is brave strength etc. More info at http://www.babynamespedia.com/meaning/Millicent if you can be bothered

We didn't want something that translated as "daughter of God" or "Light of our lives" etc.
I found it, no idea why it stayed lodged in my brain from childhood:

A bottle of perfume that Willy sent
Was highly displeasing to Millicent.
Her thanks were so cold
That they quarreled, I'm told,
Through that silly scent Willy sent Millicent.


I vaguely remember Milly Molly Mandy.

Lovely name, anyway

Grandaughter?? You're a granny???

A dinner lady and a Granny?

Well well well. I might even have to use some more of those stupid smileys....

My great aunt's name was Amelia and she was named for her grandmother. Aunt Amy used to send my Dad a $5 bill for his birthday every year, right up until she died, . Note he was in his 50s when she died.
