What Does the Name Quincie Mean?

Quincie is a variant spelling of Quincy, a name taken from a place in Normandy, France. The place name was written in Latin as Quintiacum, formed from the Roman personal name Quintus plus the Gallo-Roman place-name ending -iacum, which meant "estate" or "land belonging to." Quintus itself is Latin for "fifth," a common given name among Romans and often given to a fifth child or fifth-born son.

The literal sense of the place name, and therefore of the name, is "estate of Quintus" - the landholding of a man named Quintus. It is not a statement about birth order in the family using the name today. The -ie ending in Quincie is an English respelling of the same root, the kind of spelling often used for affectionate or feminine forms of names (as with Charlie or Jamie); it does not come from a separate etymology.

Quincie Name History & Origins

The name enters English through the Norman surname de Quincy, taken from a family seat in Normandy. After the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, the surname appears in England; Saer de Quincy, who died in 1219 and became Earl of Winchester, is among the best-known medieval bearers of it. Over centuries the surname spread, and like many English surnames it later began to be used as a given name.

In America the name is closely tied to the Quincy family of Massachusetts. Colonel John Quincy, a colonial officeholder and landowner, was the namesake of the town of Quincy, Massachusetts. His great-grandson was named John Quincy Adams and later became president, which helped fix Quincy as a recognizable American given name. Quincie is one of several respelled forms of it, alongside Quincey and Quency.

As a given name, Quincy has been used for boys and, especially in the American South, for girls; the -ie spelling Quincie is largely a twentieth-century American form. It is sometimes chosen as an independent spelling rather than as a nickname, though a family connection to a Quincy is often the reason for it.
