What does Tillie mean?
2 syllables

Tillie is a pet form of Matilda, a Germanic name built from "maht," meaning "might" or "strength," and "hild," meaning "battle." Through Matilda, Tillie carries an old meaning of fierce strength, even though the nickname itself reads as soft and playful.

Tillie has a cozy, old-fashioned charm - the kind of name that suits a dog with a sweet face and a surprisingly determined streak.
