Ozzie is in Origin.
Ozzie is a jaunty English diminutive used for several names beginning with Os- or Oz-. It most commonly shortens Oswald (Old English os “god” + weald “rule/power”), Osborne/Osborn (from Old Norse Ásbjǫrn “divine bear”), and Osbert (Old English os “god” + beorht “bright”), and can also stand for Ozias, the Greek/Latin form of Hebrew Uzziah (“Yahweh is my strength”). As a standalone given name, Ozzie blends senses of “divine strength,” “godly ruler,” and “bright” drawn from these roots.
The nickname appears in medieval England alongside saintly Oswald, reemerged in the 19th–20th centuries as a cozy pet form that sometimes became the official name, and remains familiar through figures like bandleader Ozzie Nelson and Hall of Famer Ozzie Smith. Variant spellings and related forms include Ozzy and Ossie; longer bases include Oswald, Osborn(e), Osbert, and Ozias. Not to be confused with Aussie.
