Tracey Origin and Meaning

The name Tracey is a boy's name meaning "of Thracia".

Popular in the 60s, 70s and 80s, Tracey (and its spelling variation Tracy) have since fallen out of style. As a masculine name, it has been in use since at least the 19th century and was spotlighted in 1837 when Charles Dickens used it for a character in his novel The Pickwick Papers. Derived from a Roman family name, it refers to an ancient settlement known as Thracia, although it has been considered a variant of Theresa too.
