Kassidy

Kassidy is a given name, primarily used as a female given name. Its origins are generally considered to be English, and it is believed to be a modern variant of the name Cassidy. The name Cassidy itself has Irish roots, deriving from the surname Ó Caiside, which means "descendant of Caiside." Caiside is thought to be an Irish personal name meaning "curly-haired" or "clever."

The popularity of Kassidy as a given name saw a notable increase in the late 20th and early 21st centuries in English-speaking countries. It is often chosen for its contemporary sound and its association with the Irish heritage of the name Cassidy. While the spelling Kassidy is common, variations such as Cassidy, Kassidi, and Cassady also exist. The name does not have a specific widely recognized historical figure or mythological association that prominently defines its meaning beyond its linguistic origins. It is generally perceived as a modern and popular choice for girls.
