Kasie
Meaning of Kasie
Kasie emerges as a contemporary orthographic variant of the unisex appellation Casey, itself traceable to the Irish surname Ó Cathasaigh and ultimately to the Gaelic cathasach, meaning “vigilant” or “watchful.” Pronounced KAY-see (/ˈkeɪsi/) in American English, this feminine form has displayed a modest yet measurable presence among newborns in the United States, reaching its apex of 216 occurrences (rank 595) in 1987 before gradually receding to just seven occurrences (rank 943) in 2024. Its historical usage curve mirrors broader sociolinguistic trends—most notably the late 20th-century favoring of diminutive suffixes in female given names—while its compact phonetic profile and etymological link to attentiveness continue to confer a technical elegance. As such, Kasie offers parents a name that balances archival depth with contemporary restraint, appealing to those who value both historical resonance and modern clarity.
