Stacey for girls#3096 US
Stacey is a feminine name (though also used for boys) with Greek origins, derived from Eustace, meaning 'fruitful' or 'productive.' Initially a diminutive of Anastasia, meaning 'resurrection,' Stacey emerged as an independent name in its own right. The name reached peak popularity in the United States during the 1970s and 1980s, becoming emblematic of that era. Stacey conveys a friendly, approachable quality while maintaining a certain spirited energy. While its usage has declined since its heyday, the name retains nostalgic appeal and continues to be appreciated for its pleasant sound and unpretentious charm. Various spelling variations exist, including Stacy and Stacie, each offering slight personalization while preserving the name's essential character.
Pronounced STAY-see.
As of October 2026, Stacey ranked #11806 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #215 in 1968.
