'''Amy''' or '''Amii''' (also '''Auns''', '''Hanar''', '''Hanni''') is a demon described in demonological grimoires such as the Lesser Key of Solomon[note 1][1] (including Thomas Rudd's version[note 2]),[2] the Pseudomonarchia Daemonum,[note 3][3] and in the Munich Manual of Demonic Magic;[note 4][4][5][6] as well as Jacques Collin de Plancy Dictionnaire Infernal,[7]

Amy is described as a President, appearing initially as a flame before turning to a human form. He is claimed to teach astronomy and liberal arts, give familiars, incite positive reactions from rulers, and (according to all sources except the Munich Manual) reveal treasures. According to all sources, he rules over 36 legions of demons. According to Johann Weyer, he was of both the order of angels and potestates (powers), and holds the futile hope of returning to the seventh heaven after 12 centuries. According to Rudd, Amii is opposed by the Shem HaMephorash angel Ieialel.
