Jodie is the English diminutive of Judith — from the Hebrew Yehudit ("woman of Judea, praised"). Yale graduate (magna cum laude, 1985). DeMille Award same evening.
Subject of countless American film studies.
Jodie does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.
In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Jodie reduce to 7, The Seeker. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
