Hassie, of Hebrew origin, is an uncommon yet charming unisex given name. It is derived from the Hebrew name Hadasseh, which means "myrtle tree." This name is often chosen for its biblical significance and its pleasant sound. Hassie has been used in various cultures throughout history, but it remains relatively rare today, making it a unique choice for parents looking to give their child an uncommon yet meaningful name.
The name Hassie experienced significant popularity fluctuations throughout the late 19th to mid-20th centuries, with peaks and valleys in annual birth counts. The highest number of births occurred in 1914 (41) and 1915 (53), potentially related to immigration patterns or cultural shifts during that period. However, by the late 1940s and early 1950s, the name's popularity had significantly decreased, with fewer than 10 births per year occurring consistently until the mid-1960s when it began to show a slight resurgence. Overall, there were 1543 births registered under the name Hassie between 1880 and 1988.
