Origin, Meaning, And History Of Natalie

Natalie is a relaxed feminine name with Latin roots. It arises from ‘Natalis,’ which implies’ birthday.’ It also means ‘birthday of the God,’ ‘Christmas,’ or ‘festival of the Nativity’ because of its Latin roots, ‘ Natale domini.’ From this view, the name directly translates as ‘child born on Christmas.’ Natalie also has associations with the Greek term’ anatoly.’ Anatoly means ‘sunrise.’ Thus, etymologically, Natalie means ‘start,’ ‘born,’ or ‘sunrise.’ It is also considered a French variation of the Russian term Natalia.

Historically, the name was given to girls born around Christmas. A less common version of it is Nathalie. The Italian word Natalino, implying ‘born on Christmas,’ is thought to have grown into the English word natal. Another reason for its popularity among Christians is that it is considered a fitting name for the Christian saint’s birthday. Natalie was the wife of the 4th-century martyr Saint Adrian of Nicomedia, who is venerated as a saint in the Orthodox Church.

Traditionally, this name has been more in use among Eastern Christians than in the West. Natalie has several language variations. In French, it is Natacha; in English, Natalee; and in Spanish, Natalia. In Croatian, the name is spelled as Natalija; in Italian, it is Natalina; and in Bulgarian, it is Nataliya.

There are many fictional Natalies as well. Natalie Dragomiroff is  a character in Agatha Christie’s novel ‘Murder on the Orient Express.’ Natalia Romanova appears as a character in the Marvel universe. There is also a song, ‘Natalie,’ by Bruno Mars. You will readily recognize Natalie, played by Cameron Diaz’s character in Charlie’s Angels. Natalie Figueroa is also a character in the  TV series ‘Orange Is the New Black.’
