Argie
About Argie
Argie is a feminine name that likely developed as a diminutive of names beginning with 'Arg-' such as Argenta (meaning 'silver' in Latin). It may also be a nickname for Argentina, either referencing the country or as a feminine form of Argentius. Some families use Argie as a shortened form of Margaret. The name has a bright, cheerful sound with its soft 'g' and ending 'ie' that gives it a friendly, approachable quality. While never widely popular, Argie saw limited use in the early to mid-20th century, particularly in some Southern communities of the United States. Its vintage charm could appeal to parents seeking a distinctive yet affectionate-sounding name.
Pronounced AR-jee.
As of October 2026, Argie ranked #5431 in US births in 1970 SSA, peaked at #928 in 1883.
