Girl
Stacey
As a girl's name, Stacey traces back to Greek, where it is understood to mean "Resurrection". It was at its most popular in the 1970s and is rarely chosen now. As things stand now, it is widely recognized. It has quietly persisted through most of the last century of American birth records.
