Meaning & origin

Maicie is a modern spelling variant of the Scottish classic Maisie. First recorded in U.S. data in 1995, it saw its peak year in 2017. The name has remained stable in low usage since then, never reaching the top 1000. Its similarity to the more widely used Maisie (which peaked in the 2010s) gives it a familiar but distinctive feel. While no top states are associated with Maicie, its root name Margaret has centuries of history across the English-speaking world, from saints to queens, and the diminutive Maisie carries a charming, vintage air.

Maicie is a modern spelling variant of Maisie, which originated as a Scottish diminutive of Margaret. Margaret derives from the Greek word 'margarites', meaning 'pearl'. The name Maisie became popular in Scotland and England in the 19th century, with Maicie emerging as a phonetic spelling in the late 20th century.
