Meaning & origin

Daisie is a rare variant spelling of the classic flower name Daisy, which has been in use since the 19th century. According to Social Security data, Daisie first appeared in records in 1880, the earliest year available, and saw its peak popularity in 1883. In 2025, the name ranked 4661, with a usage rate of about 1 in 55,423 girls. Its trajectory has been relatively stable but low, never reaching substantial popularity. The spelling 'Daisy' remains far more common, while Daisie offers a more distinctive alternative. As a floral name, it belongs to a tradition of botanically inspired names like Rose and Lily, and its gentle sound and bright meaning keep it a sweet choice for parents seeking a name with vintage charm.

Daisie is a variant spelling of Daisy, which comes from the Old English 'dægesege' literally 'day's eye', referring to the way the flower's petals close at dusk and open at dawn. The flower name has been used as a given name since the 19th century, and the spelling Daisie emerged as a less common variant, particularly in the late 1800s. It shares its origin with the standard spelling and has never achieved the same level of popularity as the more common 'Daisy'.
