About the Name Cassie

The name Cassie's root letters are CS.

The CS root evokes both the brusque and the sensual characteristics of the letters C and S. The strong cadence of the crisp letter C instills a sense of conviction and clear-headedness, while the sensual letter S lends an air of slinky sexuality that infuses these names with a coy sensuality. Those whose parents terminate their children’s names with a diminutizing Y or IE -- as in Casey, Cassie, and Cicely – bestow an even more playful aspect to their children’s lives.

Cassies are those people who enjoy life and its simple pleasures. In fact, one could say that their most solemn characteristic is the effort they put into finding new adventures. Cassies strive to be around like-minded people who also take pleasure from always being on the go, although it’s less about companionship than it is for the camaraderie. The last thing you’d ever describe Cassies as being, is dependent. Forthey are fiercely autonomous people who you wouldn’t expect to find in dependent relationships: they function best in the company of others-who-have-a-life.

Anyone who dates the energetic CS shouldn’t be afraid of having too much fun. Nor should they be worried about what friends would think about hanging around such an irrepressible party animal. And they shouldn’t even think about spending a quiet night at home, for Cassies will expect their friends to be active co-conspirators in their quest for merriment. This positive outlook makes Cassies a particular favorite with the younger set, and anyone in need of a mentor will find them to be supportive and unselfish with their time. If there’s a downside to this enthusiastic altruism though, it’s that Cassies have a difficult time stretching their attention spans for more than a few minutes at a time; giving the impression that they simply can’t hold a deep conversation.

Careers for the Cassies will have to include plenty of opportunities for socializing. Look for them to enter occupations that involve working with the public, like catering, performing, retail or teaching. But anything that allows them to be outdoors or gives them opportunities to travel will also be perfect for the convivial Cassies.

A corresponding need for excitement and variety pervades the Cassies’ family lives, where they don’t feel comfortable unless surrounded by noise, activity and laughter. CS lovers are passionate enough, but also hard to please; they want more out of life than just marriage and children, but are not really sure what that might be. Ideal mates are those who will accompany the Cassies on their search for meaning.
