Rhodie is in Origin.
Rhodie is a modern English given name and affectionate short form with several roots. Most commonly it stems from Rhoda, from Greek rhódon “rose,” the name of a servant in the New Testament (Acts 12:13) that saw periodic revival in English-speaking communities, especially among Puritans. Rhodie can also contract Rhodes, a surname/place name (“of Rhodes”), and, in Wales, serves as a casual pet form of Rhodri (from rhod “wheel” + ri “king”).
Used in records from the late 19th century, Rhodie appears more as a nickname than a formal name but has seen independent, increasingly unisex use in recent years. Variant spellings include Rhody and Rhodey; related formal options are Rhoda, Rhodes, and Rhodri. Depending on origin, the name carries the meanings “rose,” “from Rhodes,” or “wheel king,” offering botanical sweetness or a quietly regal, Celtic twist.
