Deisi
A girl's name of Spanish origin with 574 recorded U.S. births.
Meaning & Origin
Deisi peaked during the Gen Z era, when 31 babies received this name in a single year (1999). That era was defined by globally influenced, diversity-driven naming, and Deisi has a more concentrated history, reflecting a specific cultural moment rather than a broad generational wave.
Deisi is not in the current top 1,000 girl names nationally, making it an uncommon choice — though your state or community may differ.
Deisi is a girl's baby name of Spanish origin, a phonetic spelling of Daisy, which is of Old English origin, from dæges eage, meaning 'day's eye' — the way the daisy flower opens and closes with the sun. As a name in Spanish-speaking communities, Deisi reflects how the English name was adopted and respelled phonetically.
Deisi is used primarily in Latin American communities in the United States, where it carries the cheerful, nature-connected associations of the daisy in a distinctly Spanish phonetic form.
