History & Origin

Hazy is the English word used as a name, and it reads two ways. As a word-name it means 'misty, soft-edged, indistinct'; haze itself is of uncertain origin, first recorded in seventeenth-century English and possibly from nautical use. As a nickname it is a natural pet form of Hazel, the tree name. Word-names of this atmospheric kind - Sunny, Misty, Breezy - have a long American history, and we state Hazy's plain word sense openly (said 'HAY-zee').

It appears only in very small numbers in the U.S. Rare, soft, and word-based.

Did you know? The English word haze has no settled origin - it appears in the 1600s as sailors' vocabulary for thick weather, and hazy grew from it.
