Meaning and background

The story behind Macie

Macie is another established English spelling in the Macy family. The final ie looks like a diminutive, but the naming reference classifies Macie as a variant rather than a separately derived older word. Like Macy it is pronounced “MAY-see”. Its deeper family history comes through an English surname from French places named Massy, not a universal translation such as “weapon” or “gift”.

Origin
English variant of Macy, the given name derived from an English surname of French Massy place-name origin. Source
Pronunciation
English: /ˈmeɪ.si/. Source
