Meaning & origin

Mazzie is a vintage nickname name that saw its peak in 1905, when it ranked highest. After decades of decline, it has been rising again since 1997, bringing it back into public view. With a current rank of 6,325 in 2025, it remains uncommon but is seeing renewed interest. Typically a diminutive of Margaret, Mazzie carries the meaning 'pearl' from the Greek margarites. The name's trajectory reflects a broader trend of reviving old-fashioned pet names, and its revival decade, the 1900s, aligns with a taste for names from that era.
