What is the meaning of the name Midgee ?

The baby name Midgee is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈmɪdʒi/ (MID-jee).

Midgee is English in Origin.

Midgee is an English pet-name formation, built from Midge with the affectionate -ee/-ie ending. Midge arose as a dialectal diminutive of Margaret and Marjorie - names ultimately from Greek Margarites, “pearl” - and also overlapped with the English noun midge, the tiny gnat (from Old English mycg). Because of this blend, Midgee carries both the classic “pearl” sense and a colloquial feel of “small but sprightly.”

Usage has been mostly informal in Britain, Ireland, and North America from the late 19th century onward, with occasional appearance as an independent given name; it is unisex as a nickname but leans feminine when tied to Margaret. Variants include Midgie, Midgey, Midge, Miggie, and the related Madge. Diminutive alternatives from the same root include Maggie, Meg, Maisie, and Marjorie. Midgee suits families seeking a vintage, whimsical diminutive with gentle charm.
