Daisey is a floral name that began as a variant spelling of Daisy, which itself comes from the Old English *dæges ēage*, meaning "day's eye," a reference to the way the flower's petals close at dusk and open again at dawn. As a given name, Daisy became particularly popular in the Victorian era, when flower names were in vogue. The original spelling is borne by the fictional Daisy Buchanan from F. Scott Fitzgerald's *The Great Gatsby*, and by the real-life American singer and actress Daisy Fuentes, who helped popularise the name in modern pop culture. The name also carries a gentle literary note through the character Daisy Miller in Henry James's novella of the same name. Though less common than the standard spelling, Daisey offers a slightly more distinctive take on this cheerful, nature-inspired classic.
