Its use as a first name is quite uncommon but follows the modern trend of adopting surnames as given names. This practice has roots in honoring family heritage or creating distinctive, memorable names. Mcgee carries a strong Celtic association and projects a casual, friendly quality with its familiar surname sound.

The name's distinctive sound and spelling make it immediately recognizable while its surname origins give it a contemporary, unconventional character.
