What is the meaning of the name Frytzie ?

The baby name Frytzie is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈfrɪtsi/ (FRIT-see),/ˈfraɪtsi/ (FRY-tsee).

Frytzie is German in Origin.

Frytzie is a modern, eye-catching respelling of Fritzie/Fritzi, the German pet form of Fritz, itself a diminutive of Friedrich (and its feminine counterpart Friederike/Frederica). The Germanic roots frid/fried “peace, protection” and ric “ruler, power” yield the time-honored meaning “peaceful ruler” or “ruler through peace.” Pronounced FRIT-see, Frytzie carries the same brisk, jaunty sound that made Fritz and Fritzi staples in Central Europe.

As a given name or nickname, Fritzi/Fritzie surfaced in German-speaking countries in the 19th and early 20th centuries and migrated into English via immigration and popular culture (for example, the comic-strip character Fritzi Ritz and boxer Fritzie Zivic). Today Frytzie reads as a rare, playful twist favored by parents seeking individuality. Close variants include Fritzi, Fritzie, Fritzy, Fritz, and the feminine Frederica/Friederike; related diminutives abroad include Fritzl (Austrian) and Fritzchen (German).
