Maizie
Maizie Origin and Meaning
Maizie is a charming feminine name that functions as a diminutive or variant spelling of Maisie, which itself originated as a Scottish pet form of Margaret. Margaret derives from the Greek 'margarites' meaning 'pearl.' The spelling Maizie gives the name a slightly different visual appeal while maintaining the same sweet, vintage sound. This name enjoyed popularity in the early 20th century before declining, then experienced a revival beginning in the early 2000s as part of the trend toward revitalizing vintage nicknames as standalone names. Maizie has a cheerful, whimsical quality that appeals to parents seeking something familiar yet uncommon. The name carries associations of Scottish heritage and vintage charm, with a friendly, approachable character that works well from childhood into adulthood.
