Macee

Meaning of Macee

Macee is a feminine given name that has emerged in recent decades as a contemporary respelling of Macy, itself derived from the Old French toponym Massy and ultimately linked to the Gallo-Roman personal name Maccius. Pronounced /meɪˈsi/, Macee retains the phonetic qualities of its predecessor while adopting the “-ee” suffix popular in modern Anglo-American naming conventions. Analytically, its usage in the United States has remained modest yet consistent, first appearing on the Social Security Administration’s top 1000 list in 1981 (rank 778) and since fluctuating between the 800s and 900s—with 15 recorded births in 2024, ranking 935. The name’s morphological pattern aligns with other post-1990 creative variants, offering an appealing blend of historical depth and contemporary distinctiveness.
