Chastidy is a modern American respelling of Chastity, an English virtue name rooted in Latin castitas “purity, chasteness,” from castus “morally clean,” via Old French chasteté and Middle English chastite/chastity. As a given name it expresses ideals of purity, self-restraint, and moral integrity. The -idy ending mirrors common pronunciation of -ity and lends the name a softer, contemporary profile while preserving the traditional meaning.

Virtue names flourished among English-speaking Puritans in the 17th century and have resurfaced in waves. In the United States, Chastity gained wider notice in the late 1960s–1970s through pop-culture exposure, which encouraged creative spellings. Standard and related forms include Chastity and Chasity; rarer variants are Chastidy, Chastiti, and Chastitie. Nicknames such as Chas and Chassy occur in informal use. Pronunciation commonly follows CHAS-ti-dee for this spelling.
