Meaning & origin

Levie is a name of uncertain origin, likely derived from the Hebrew Levi or a Dutch short form. It first appeared in U.S. records in 1890 and saw its peak popularity in 1908, ranking 12,008th in 2025 with a frequency of 1 in 341,615 newborns. The name has been on a downward trend since 2021, and it is used for both genders, though historically more for boys. Levie has not been concentrated in any particular state, reflecting its widespread but sparse usage.

Levie is likely a variant of the biblical name Levi, which in Hebrew means 'joined' or 'attached.' Alternatively, it may have Dutch origins as a short form of names like Levinus or a surname. The name saw modest use in the United States in the early 20th century, with a peak in 1908, but has since become rare.
