Wallie Origin and Meaning

The name Wallie is a girl's name.

Wallie is a charming feminine name that originated as a diminutive form of names like Walburga or as a feminine variation of Wallace or Walter. These root names have Germanic origins meaning 'ruler of the army' or 'powerful ruler.' As a standalone name, Wallie has a friendly, approachable quality with its playful ending. It enjoyed modest popularity in the early 20th century but became less common in recent decades. The name carries a vintage appeal that aligns with the revival of other nickname-style names. While traditionally used for girls, Wallie can also be found as a spelling variation of Wally for boys, making it somewhat gender-neutral in modern usage.
