Natalie: meaning and origin
Natalie comes from the Latin name Natalia, from natalis, “relating to birth” or “birthday”, especially the birthday of Jesus, so it also carries a Christmas sense. Behind the Name notes Saint Natalia of Nicomedia, wife of the martyr Adrian. Wikipedia lists spellings such as Nathalie, Natalee and Natalia.
Nicknames and variants
Nat, Nattie and Talie are friendly short forms, and Behind the Name also lists Natasha, Natalia, Nathalie and Nataly. Natasha began as a Russian diminutive of Natalia and is now a full name in English too.
