Jacquie Origin and Meaning
Jacquie is a feminine name that serves as a diminutive or variation of Jacqueline, which is the French feminine form of Jacques (James). With French origins, the name ultimately derives from Hebrew, meaning 'supplanter.' This particular spelling with 'ie' ending gives it a friendly, approachable quality compared to more formal versions. Jacquie peaked in popularity during the mid-20th century but has since become less common. The name carries a certain playful elegance and vintage charm. It strikes a balance between familiarity and distinctiveness, as most people recognize it while encountering it relatively infrequently. The nickname-style spelling often reflects a casual, warm personality.
