Meaning of Kasidy

The name Kasidy, predominantly used for females, is a fresh and modern variation of the more traditional Cassidy. Pronounced as KAY-si-dee (/ˈkeɪsədi/), this name has an Irish origin and is derived from the Gaelic surname Ó Caiside, meaning "descendant of Caiside." The name Caiside itself means "curly-haired," making Kasidy an excellent choice for parents who appreciate names with rich cultural backgrounds.

Despite its unique spelling, Kasidy maintains a sense of familiarity through its phonetic resemblance to Cassidy. Over the years, it has seen fluctuating popularity in the United States, peaking significantly in 2004 when it ranked 3689th with 39 occurrences. Although its usage has declined in recent years, with only 10 occurrences in 2022 ranking at 9661st place, Kasidy remains a charming option for those seeking a distinctive yet accessible name for their daughter.

With its melodic sound and heritage-laden roots, Kasidy offers both a nod to tradition and a touch of contemporary flair.
