Kasie

Girl name · 6 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Kasie: 6 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 1990.

Kasie is most often a modern respelling of Casey, an anglicised form of the Irish Gaelic surname Ó Cathasaigh, meaning “descendant of Cathasach” – a personal name rooted in *cathasach*, or “vigilant” and “watchful.” The name also occasionally appears as a diminutive of Katherine, though that usage is rarer. Among notable bearers, journalist Kasie Hunt, known for her political reporting across NBC and CNN, has given the name contemporary visibility. While no major places bear the exact spelling Kasie, the root of Casey appears in several American towns, including Casey, Illinois. This particular spelling offers a softer alternative to the more common Casey or Kacie, and enjoyed modest popularity in Scotland during the 1990s and 2000s, often chosen by parents seeking a familiar yet distinctively feminine form.
