Daisy as a name
“Daisy” is a feminine given name that comes from the Old English word “dægeseage,” which means “day’s eye.” This name is often associated with the daisy flower, which is a symbol of purity, innocence, and new beginnings.
Daisy has been a popular name in English-speaking countries since the late 19th century. It gained even more popularity in the 1920s and 1930s, possibly due to the character of Daisy Buchanan in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel “The Great Gatsby.”
Daisy is a cheerful and charming name, and it has been used as a nickname for Margaret, which also means “pearl,” and for longer versions of the name such as Daisie, Daisielle, and Daisetta.
