History & Origin
Randye is a spelling variant of Randi, the feminine short form behind Miranda and Randall. Miranda means worthy of admiration in Latin; Randall is a Germanic name meaning shield-wolf. Randye keeps the breezy nickname sound while adding a silent finishing e.
It was never common, given to only a handful of girls a year around its late-1940s appearance and gone by about 1960. A Randye from that time is in her seventies now; it reads as a brief mid-century nickname spelling rather than a revival.
