History & Origin

Demetrie is a variant of Demetrius, from Greek Demetrios, 'devoted to Demeter,' the goddess of grain and the harvest. The trimmed -trie spelling gives it a softer finish. It appears in United States records from the mid-1960s and reached a small high around 1992.

A boy named Demetrie at that early-1990s high would be in his thirties now. It reads as a smooth variant of the classical Demetrius and has not broken out on its own; parents drawn to the sound often choose Demetrius or Dimitri.

Did you know? Demetrie ties back to Demeter, the Greek goddess of the harvest, through the classic name Demetrius.
