Chelsie Origin and Meaning

The name Chelsie is a girl's name.

Chelsie represents a modern variant spelling of Chelsea, a name derived from an Old English place name meaning 'landing place for chalk or limestone.' Originally gaining recognition as a fashionable district in London, Chelsea transitioned to personal use during the 20th century. This particular spelling with 'ie' instead of 'ea' gives the name a softer, more feminine touch while maintaining its English heritage. Chelsie rose in popularity during the 1980s and 1990s, part of the trend toward place names and names ending with the cheerful 'ie' sound. The name conveys a youthful, approachable quality with a touch of sophistication from its geographic origins. Though less common today than during its peak, Chelsie retains a pleasant familiarity and contemporary feel.
