Lottie was popular in late Victorian England and is returning fast in the U.K. and U.S. as part of the vintage revival. Today it sits in the U.S. top 800 and is climbing.

Where Lottie stands.

Lottie does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
