Scottie Origin and Meaning

The name Scottie is a girl's name meaning "Scot".

With its sassy, old school vibes, its cheerful, snappy sounds, and its fresh, unisex image, Scottie was one of the fastest rising names for girls in 2023.

Managing to feel stylish, preppy, playful, and tough all at once, Scottie only entered the US Top 1000 in 2022, but rose 300 places the following year. Once used mostly for boys, it is now given to girls nearly 90% of the time, with 480 girls receiving the name in 2023.

Derived from the surname "Scott", which was originally given to someone from Scotland or who spoke Scottish Gaelic, Scottie's new popularity reflects America's current love for grandpa names for girls, like Frankie, Ozzie, and Lenny. On the rise in The Netherlands too, it has replaced Scotlyn which seemed to be making moves in the 2010s.

For any literare lovers out there, F. Scott Fitzgerald's daughter, Frances Scott Fitzgerald, was known as Scottie.
