Goldie is English in Origin.

Goldie is an English given name formed from the noun gold, long used as an affectionate pet name for a golden‑haired or especially treasured child. It also serves as an Anglicized form of the Yiddish names Golde and Golda (גאָלדע/גאָלדאַ), both meaning “gold,” carrying the broader sense of “precious” and “valued.” The name’s warm, sunny tone and straightforward imagery have kept it recognizable across English‑speaking and Jewish communities.

In wider use since the late 19th century, Goldie rose during the Victorian and Edwardian taste for nature and jewel names, peaked in the United States in the 1900s–1920s, waned mid‑century, and has seen a vintage‑style revival in the 21st century. Actor Goldie Hawn cemented its pop‑culture profile. Established variants and spellings include Golda, Golde, Goldi, Goldy, and Goldee; Yiddish diminutives such as Goldele also appear. Meaning: “golden; precious; of great worth.”
