What is the meaning of the name Mayci ?

The baby name Mayci is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced MAY-see (IPA: /ˈmeɪsi/).

Mayci is English in Origin.

Mayci is a modern respelling of Macy, adopted from an English surname. That surname traces to Norman French habitational names Massy and Macey, ultimately from the Gallo‑Roman personal name Maccius plus the locative suffix -acum, “estate of Maccius.” Accordingly, Mayci carries the sense “from Massy/Macey.”

Macy appears sporadically in English records and gained steady U.S. use in the late 20th century with the rise of brisk, surname-style names; Mayci is a recent, phonetic twist favored in the 2000s. Variant spellings include Macy, Macey, Macie, Maycie, Maycee, and Maicey; Massey remains a surname form. Similar-sounding Maisy/Maisie is unrelated (a Scottish pet form of Margaret). Today the name is used chiefly for girls across the English-speaking world.
