Navey

Meaning of Navey

Navey is a modern English feminine name, conceived as a variant spelling of the common noun “navy” and first appearing in late 20th-century usage. Its straightforward etymology evokes maritime imagery—suggesting steadiness and authority—while its crisp, two-syllable structure aligns with contemporary Anglo-American naming trends. The name has maintained a modest but steady presence in the United States, rising from five newborns in 2016 (rank 963) to a recent high of thirty-four in 2022 (rank 910), and counting twenty-four births in 2024 (rank 926). Pronounced NAY-vee (/ˈneɪvi/), Navey offers parents a familiar-sounding yet subtly novel choice.
