If your name is Mackie your parents may be very proud to let their child swim against the tide: The name Mackie never ranked higher than position 1,625 in our statistics, and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea of naming their newborn Mackie. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1891 to choose the name more often than usual - only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Mackie because that was a veeeeery long time ago - unless, of course, you have some very creative parents in the neighborhood.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Mackie was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
As in the last century, Mackie still proves to be exceptional. Even in 2022, the name was given very rarely - in fact, only 7 times in the entire U.S. So, a Mackie from 2022 will need very good binoculars to spot the next namesake of the same age.
