Pattie

Pattie is a feminine name typically used as a diminutive form of Patricia, which derives from the Latin 'patricius' meaning 'noble' or 'of the patrician class.' This friendly, approachable variant peaked in popularity in the United States during the mid-20th century, particularly in the 1950s and 60s. Pattie has a warm, vintage charm that evokes the sock-hop era while maintaining a sweet, unpretentious quality. The name has occasionally been used for boys as a variation of Patrick, though this usage is much rarer. Notable bearers include singer Pattie Boyd, who was married to both George Harrison and Eric Clapton, lending the name some cultural cachet in music history.

Pronounced PAT-ee.
