Hydie is Germanic in Origin.
Hydie is most commonly treated as a modern respelling of Heidi, the German diminutive of Adelheid (English Adelaide). Adelheid combines the elements adal "noble" and heid "kind/sort," yielding the sense "of noble kind" or "noble one." As with Heidi, Hydie carries a bright, friendly diminutive shape wrapped around an old Germanic aristocratic meaning.
The name became widely familiar worldwide through Johanna Spyri's 19th-century novel Heidi and its popular stage and film adaptations, prompting mid-20th-century spikes in English-speaking countries; Hydie surfaces in records later as a distinctive variant. Related or look-alike forms include Heidi, Heidy, Heidie, Hydee, Hidy, and Hedy (itself from Hedwig), while Haidee/Haydee are separate literary names. Some also read Hydie as a nickname from the surname Hyde, though this is rarer. Overall, the variant preserves the classic "noble" meaning with a fresh, contemporary spelling.
