Mckensie is of Scottish origin, derived from the surname McKenzie, which means 'son of Kenneth'. It's a name that has evolved over time and now stands as a unique and distinctive given name. The spelling variation with 'k' instead of 'c' adds to its individuality. Mckensie is also sometimes associated with the Scottish Gaelic name 'Coinneach', meaning 'comely or handsome'. In recent years, it has gained popularity as a unisex name, but historically, it was more commonly used for males.
"The name McKensie has had a fluctuating popularity over the years, with peaks in the mid-1990s and early 2000s, but it appears to have significantly declined since around 2014."
