Wallie is an uncommon yet distinctive given name, believed to have originated from the German surname 'Walter'. It has been used infrequently as a given name since the mid-20th century, possibly as a short form of other names like Wallace or Walter. Wallie is associated with masculinity and has been most popular in English-speaking countries.
The name Wallie appears to have been quite popular among parents during the early to mid-20th century, with a notable spike in popularity between 1937 and 1941. However, it seems that this trend did not continue into the later years of the century, as there were no recorded births with this name after 1952.
