Claudey
Claudey Origin and Meaning
Claudey is a feminine name that appears to be a variant or diminutive form of Claude or Claudia. These names derive from the Roman family name Claudius, meaning 'lame' or 'limping,' though this etymology has little relevance to its modern usage. The addition of the 'ey' ending softens the traditional Claude, giving it a more explicitly feminine quality while maintaining connections to its classical roots. Claudey is quite rare, not appearing in most popularity charts. It combines the sophistication of its Latin origins with a more playful, contemporary ending. The name might appeal to parents drawn to classic names but wanting something less common than Claudia. Claudey has a gentle, somewhat vintage charm that sets it apart from more widely used feminine names.
