Martie is English in Origin.
Martie is a nickname-derived given name found in English and Afrikaans, built with the affectionate -ie ending. It most often shortens Martha (from Aramaic marta, "lady, mistress") but can also contract Martin (from Latin Martinus), "of Mars," hence "warlike" or "belonging to Mars." Because it bridges these two lineages, Martie functions as a light, friendly unisex choice, though in practice it leans feminine in English and Afrikaans.
As an independent name, Martie saw modest mid-20th-century use in the United States and remains familiar in South Africa; musician Martie Maguire (born Martha) offers a contemporary touchpoint. Variants and cognates include Marty and Marti; Martha, Marta, and Marthe; Martin, Martyn, and the Catalan Marti; plus feminine elaborations Martina and Martine. Alternative spellings such as Martee occur rarely.
