Roxey Origin and Meaning

The name Roxey is a girl's name.

Roxey is a playful feminine name that likely developed as a diminutive or variant spelling of Roxanne, which derives from the Persian name Roshanak meaning 'bright' or 'dawn.' This whimsical spelling with the 'ey' ending gives the name a distinctive, somewhat vintage charm. Roxey peaked in limited popularity in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries but remains quite rare today. The name has a spunky, energetic quality that evokes a free-spirited personality. It shares its sound with the word 'moxie,' perhaps contributing to its association with boldness and determination. Roxey offers a shorter, sweeter alternative to more formal names like Roxanne or Roxana.
