About Fergie
One Fergie was an aberration. But two women with that nickname -- the duchess and the Black Eyed Pea -- might make a trend.
Fergie for boys
Fergie is a unisex name that originated as a nickname for Ferguson, a Scottish surname meaning 'son of Fergus.' Fergus itself comes from Celtic elements meaning 'man' and 'vigor' or 'choice.' While listed here as masculine, Fergie has become known to many as a feminine name through the celebrity Sarah Ferguson (Duchess of York) and singer Fergie (Stacy Ferguson) of the Black Eyed Peas. As a given name rather than a nickname, Fergie remains uncommon but has a friendly, approachable quality. It carries a playful, energetic vibe that maintains its Scottish heritage while feeling modern and casual. The name has peaked and waned in recognition in correlation with its celebrity associations.
Pronounced FUR-gee.
As of October 2026, Fergie ranked #10368 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #5139 in 2007.
