Meaning & origin

Jadie is a modern English name that emerged as a phonetic variant of Jade. First recorded in 1956, it is overwhelmingly given to girls. In its peak year of 2001, it saw its highest usage, though overall it remains uncommon. As of 2025, Jadie ranks 10,917th nationally, with approximately 1 in every 200,908 girls receiving the name. Its trajectory has been stable over recent decades, and it has not experienced a revival. Though not associated with any particular states, its appeal lies in its simple, two-syllable structure and friendly sound.

Jadie is a feminine given name, primarily a modern respelling or diminutive of Jade. Jade itself derives from the Spanish phrase 'piedra de la ijada' (stone of the colic), named for its supposed medicinal properties. The name Jade gained popularity as a given name in the English-speaking world in the 1970s, and Jadie emerged as a phonetic variant, especially in the 2000s.
