Sagy is Hebrew in Origin.

Sagy is a modern Israeli given name rooted in Aramaic and Hebrew. In Biblical Aramaic, saggi means great, much, or exceedingly, and the related Hebrew adjective sagiv conveys lofty or exalted; together they yield the sense of elevated, mighty, or abundant. The name is commonly understood as lofty/great and carries an aspirational tone. A well-known Aramaic euphemism, sagi nahor (“much light”), illustrates the historic word-form, though it is not the name’s meaning.

Used chiefly in Israel since the mid-20th century, Sagy is most often masculine but can be unisex. The standard spelling is Sagi; Sagie and Sagee are phonetic variants, while Sagiv is a closely related cognate. Sagy also appears as a family name. Pronounced SAH-gee (hard g). Unrelated to the English name Sage, despite surface similarity.
