Kimie is a female name of Japanese origin. It is pronounced as kee-mee-eh (/kiːmiːe/). A variation of this name is Kimiko. In the United States, Kimie has been given to newborn girls since at least 1915. While its popularity has fluctuated over the years, it has remained a relatively uncommon choice. The name peaked in popularity during the 1930s and 1940s when it ranked consistently in the top 20s. Today, Kimie continues to be a unique and distinctive name for parents looking for something with Japanese roots and a touch of vintage charm.
