Langie is in Origin.

Langie blends Scots-English roots with surname style. Deriving from Middle English lang and Old Norse langr, meaning “long” or “tall,” it began as a nickname for a lanky person and as a pet form for bearers of Lang and the Lang- surnames. The -ie ending follows a familiar Scottish diminutive pattern (as in Archie or Maggie). While long established as a byname and surname element across Britain, Langie is a very rare modern given name, appearing in contemporary Anglophone use as a friendly, unisex choice.

Variants and related forms include Lang, Lange (German), and the casual spelling Langy. It can also function as a diminutive of Langley, Langdon, Langford, or Langston - names whose meanings trace to Old English compounds: “long meadow/clearing,” “long hill,” “long ford,” and “long stone,” respectively. As a given name, Langie carries an approachable sound with the core sense of height, length, and reach.
