History & Origin

Skie is one of several spellings of the nature name Sky, alongside Skye and Skyy. As a modern word-name it simply evokes the open sky; the word itself goes back to Old Norse sky, 'cloud'. The Skye form also carries a link to the Scottish Isle of Skye. This -ie spelling stayed the rarest of the set.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year from the late 1980s on. A girl named Skie then is in her thirties now, from the early days of one-word nature names.

Did you know? The word sky traces to the Old Norse sky, which actually meant 'cloud' before it came to mean the whole sky.
