Meaning & origin
Sosie is a rare modern name that entered the U.S. baby name pool in 2000. It reached its peak rank of 9457 (its highest rank to date) in 2023, and as of 2025 remains at that position. The name is given to 1 in every 160,727 girls born, reflecting its niche appeal. Its trajectory is stable or slightly rising, though it has not yet appeared among top states data. While its etymology is uncertain, Sosie likely draws from the familiar Susie or Susan, giving it an approachable, friendly sound. Parents drawn to unusual but recognizable names may appreciate its soft ending and resemblance to popular -ie endings.
Sosie is a modern English name that first appeared in the 2000s. It is likely a variant of Susie or a diminutive of Susan, which ultimately derive from the Hebrew name Shoshannah meaning 'lily'. The spelling 'Sosie' may have been influenced by the French word 'sosie' meaning 'double' or 'lookalike', but this connection is speculative.
