A girls’ name of Old English origin, meaning noble; a diminutive of Adela or Adelaide.
Addie by the numbers
In 2025, 7 babies in England and Wales were named Addie. In the US, 186 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.
For the size of the two countries, it is given several times more often in the US than in England and Wales.
Its American peak was 904 babies in 1920, so it is a 1920s name that has since fallen a long way.
