Mitzie

Mitzie is a feminine name that originated as a diminutive form of Mitzi, which itself is a pet form of Maria or Mary. With German and Yiddish roots, it gained popularity in the mid-20th century, particularly in the 1940s and 1950s. The name has a cheerful, playful quality that captures the spirit of its era. Mitzie has gradually declined in usage since its peak, now considered somewhat vintage. It carries a sense of nostalgic charm that may appeal to parents looking for a retro name with a friendly, approachable character. The spelling variation with an 'e' at the end adds a distinctive touch to this already endearing nickname-turned-formal name.

Pronounced MIT-zee.

As of October 2026, Mitzie ranked #14638 in US births in 2006 SSA, peaked at #1339 in 1934.
