Girl name · 4 babies recorded · 1974–2025
Kacee: 4 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 4 births in 2010.
The name Kacee is a modern, predominantly American spelling variation of Casey, which itself has deep Irish and Scottish roots. It ultimately derives from the Irish Gaelic surname Ó Cathasaigh, meaning "descendant of Cathasach," a personal name signifying "vigilant" or "watchful." As a given name, Kacee offers a fresher, more phonetic twist on the classic. One notable bearer is Kacee Carlisle, a respected American Christian musician and songwriter, though the name remains far more common in the United States than in Scotland. The traditional form Casey also shares its root with County Meath's ancient site of Cnoc an Chathasaigh (Casey's Hill). While Kacee can be used for any gender, it is most frequently chosen for girls in Scotland, reflecting a broader trend of unique spellings among traditional surnames.
