Nickie is a feminine name typically functioning as a diminutive form of Nicole or Nicola, which derive from the Greek name Nicholas meaning 'victory of the people.' With its friendly 'ie' ending, Nickie projects a cheerful, approachable quality. While more common as a nickname, some parents choose it as a given name, appreciating its informality and warmth. Nickie peaked in popularity during the mid-20th century but has declined since, now considered somewhat vintage. The spelling variation with 'ie' rather than 'y' gives it a slightly more feminine appearance.
