About Natalie
Natalie — a Franco-Russian name — became Americanized years ago and is one of those surprising names that's always ranked among the girls' Top 1000 names in the US.
An Old Lady Name in the 1950s, Natalie reversed course and has been more popular than ever in this century, though it's fallen from its peak in 2008.
Natalie is the French variation of Natalia, a name originally derived from the Latin phrase natale domini, meaning "birthday of the Lord." It was historically given to girls born around Christmas for this reason.
Natalie was Cameron Diaz's character in Charlie's Angels, and was attached to first Natalie Wood, then Natalie Cole (named for her father), and now Natalie Portman.
Along with Cole, Natalie has other musical ties to singers — Maines, Imbruglia and Merchant — and to a not too flattering hit song by Bruno Mars.
Natalie has been a TV regular, ranging from the lovable character on the old The Facts of Life, to Monk to Orange is the New Black.
Nathalie is an additional, though less common, spelling of the name.
Natalie is also given to boys.
Pronounced NAT-uh-lee.
As of October 2026, Natalie ranked #89 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #13 in 2008, Nameberry popularity #218.
