Kesie is in Origin.

Kesie (KEE-zee/KEH-see) is a modern given name in English, most commonly read as a streamlined offshoot of biblical Keziah/Kezia, from Hebrew Qetsiah "cassia," a fragrant spice akin to cinnamon. Keziah, borne by one of Job’s daughters, saw periodic use among Puritans and later in Britain and America; pet forms like Kezzie and Kizzy likely helped shape the soft, sibilant Kesie. In some cases the name is treated as a respelling of the surname Kesey or a Scottish-style diminutive related to Kester (Christopher), giving it occasional unisex appeal.

Variants and relatives include Kesia, Kezia, Keziah, Kesey, Kesi, Kessie, Kezzie, and Kizzy; meaning-adjacent Cassia and Cinnamon are also linked. The core meaning centers on "cassia; fragrant spice," connoting sweetness, warmth, and resilience. Usage remains uncommon but fits contemporary favorites like Elsie, Maisie, and Posie.
