Millicent
Millicent is an English female first name.
He goes back to the Norman name Melisende, which in turn a Frenchified version of the Germanic Amalaswinth (also Amalasuintha, Amalasuntha, from amal ' labor' and swinth "strength" ) represents.
The name has lost in recent decades significantly in popularity and has been deprecated. Thus, in 1990 only 0.009 % of baby girls in the U.S. were baptized in the name.
