Mitzey Origin and Meaning

The name Mitzey is a girl's name.

Mitzey is an uncommon feminine name that typically functions as a diminutive or pet form of Michelle or Miriam. With Yiddish influences, it may also relate to the nickname Mitzi, which has been used as a familiar form of Maria or similar names in Germanic and Eastern European contexts. The distinctive spelling with an 'ey' ending gives it a playful, informal character that distinguishes it from the more traditional Mitzi spelling. This name carries a vintage charm reminiscent of early-to-mid 20th century American and European nickname culture. Though rare in formal usage, Mitzey offers an affectionate, approachable quality with retro appeal for parents drawn to distinctive nickname-style names with European flair.
