Give Stacy a notebook that's unmistakably hers. Stacy's Notebook has her name in elegant script over a pink watercolor apple blossom cover.
Stacy is usually taken as a short form of Anastasia, from the Greek for “resurrection”. Behind the Name says it actually began as an independent name, since Anastasia was rare in America in the 1950s when Stacy took off, and that it had earlier been an uncommon boys’ name, from the surname Stacy, itself from Stace, a medieval form of Eustace. Wikipedia gives the same two Greek roots: Anastasia for girls and Eustace, “steadfast”, for boys.
Behind the Name lists Stacey, Staci, Stacie, Stacee and Stacia as variants of Stacy, with Stace as its diminutive, and Wikipedia adds Stacii. Stace is the go-to nickname, and Stacia is the more formal version.
Golfer Stacy Lewis won two major championships, the 2011 Kraft Nabisco Championship and the 2013 Women’s British Open, and was ranked world No. 1 for 25 weeks in 2013 and 2014. Under the Stacey spelling, Wikipedia lists politician and voting-rights activist Stacey Abrams and English TV presenter Stacey Dooley.
Stacy is a 1970s name. US Social Security data has it at 113th in the 1960s, peaking at 38th in the 1970s, when nearly 70,000 American girls were named Stacy, and 74th in the 1980s. Behind the Name says it was last in the US top 1000 in 2011, so most Stacys are now in their 40s and 50s.
One of the best-known Stacys is the one who’s never on screen. Wikipedia says “Stacy’s Mom” by Fountains of Wayne reached No. 21 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2003, the band’s biggest US hit, and earned a Grammy nomination. Bassist Adam Schlesinger based it on a friend who had a crush on Schlesinger’s grandmother.
Stacy’s Notebook works just as well for a teenager as for a grandmother. It’s 6" x 9", which fits in most bags, with 160 lined pages and no printed layout to work around. Use it as a diary, a school notebook, a planner or a place to collect quotes and ideas. A name on the cover turns an everyday notebook into something personal.
A plain notebook is useful. One with her name on it is a gift. Seeing “Stacy’s Notebook” on the cover tells Stacy it was chosen for her, not grabbed off a shelf, and that small touch is often what makes people keep a notebook going instead of abandoning it after a week.
How big is Stacy’s Notebook? 6" x 9", or about 15.2 x 22.9 cm. It’s a paperback with 160 lined pages inside.
