- Elaboration of Mel (either from names such as Melissa or from Greek μελι meaning "honey"). A famous bearer was Greek-American actress Melina Mercouri (1920-1994), who was born Maria Amalia Mercouris. Melina is a combination of Mel and a popular suffix -ina. Mel can be either a diminutive of different names, including Melanie and Melissa, but most likely it is derived from the Greek word "mel" itself, which in English means "honey".
