Kassie

Girl name · 15 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Kassie: 15 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 6 births in 2012.

Kassie is most often a friendly diminutive of either Cassandra or Katherine, both of Greek origin—Cassandra meaning “she who entangles men” or “prophetess,” and Katherine meaning “pure.” The name gained some visibility through American actress Kassie DePaiva, known for her long-running role on the soap opera *One Life to Live*, and through country singer Kassie Wesley. While no major places are named directly for a Kassie, the root Katherine has inspired countless place names worldwide, from St. Petersburg’s original name of Petrograd to the town of Katherine in Australia. A softer, more casual variant of Cassie, Kassie offers a modern twist on classic Greek names and has been a consistent if uncommon choice in Scotland since the late 20th century.
