Stacia

Meaning of Stacia

Stacia is a feminine name that emerged as an English variant of Stacy/Stacey, which in turn derives from the medieval Greek names Eustace (Eustachios) and its feminine form Eustacia, both carrying the sense of “fruitful” or “steadfast.” The spelling –cia also echoes Anastasia (“resurrection”), although Stacia’s usage in Anglo-American settings followed the streamlined Stacy form rather than its longer Greek antecedents. It first appeared in U.S. birth records in the early 1900s, saw modest peaks in the 1950s and 1960s with Social Security rankings in the 600s, and has since slipped to fewer than ten annual registrations and a rank approaching the mid-900s as of 2024—a quiet corner of the registry that few current toddlers share. Pronounced STAY-shə, Stacia offers a subtle nod to classical roots while retaining a clear, contemporary identity.
