Meaning, origin, history

The name Lotti is of Italian origin and it means "famous warrior". It is a diminutive form of the name Charlotte, which itself comes from the male given name Charlot, a French pet form of Charles. The name Charlotte was brought to England by Norman settlers in the late eleventh century, when they introduced many French words and names. The name gained popularity in Britain and throughout Europe during the Middle Ages, particularly among royal families. Lotti is a less common variant of Charlotte, but it has been used as an independent given name in its own right since at least the nineteenth century. In Italy, for example, Lotti was a popular girl's name in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Today, Lotti is still used as a given name, but it is relatively uncommon compared to other forms of Charlotte such as Charlie or Lara. Despite its rarity, Lotti remains a charming and distinctive choice for parents looking for an alternative to more traditional names like Charlotte or Louise.
