Tracy (; also spelled Tracey, Traci, Tracie, or Trasci) is originally a British personal name, that refers to the family ''de Tracy'' or ''de Trasci'' from Tracy-Bocage in Normandy, France. There are several places called Tracy in Northern France and there are themselves a combination of the Gaulish male's name ''Draccios'' or Latin ''Thracius'' and the well identified Celtic suffix ''-āko'' (place, property).〔Albert Dauzat and Charles Rostaing, ''Dictionnaire étymologique des noms de lieux en France'', Librairie Guénégaud 1979. p. 682.〕 While the name is unisex, within the United Kingdom it is more generally considered to be a female name. This may, in part, be due to its association with the "Essex girl". Particularly during the 1980s, alongside the name Sharon, it was a name considered to be archetypal of the Essex Girl. Its popularity peaked during the 1960s, when Tracey was the sixth most popular female name and the alternate spelling Tracy was the 12th most popular in 1964.〔()〕 It could refer to: ==Places== ;United States *Tracy, California * *Tracy Hills AVA, California wine region * *Tracy Municipal Airport * *Deuel Vocational Institution, a California state prison sometimes referred to as "Tracy" *Tracy, a neighborhood in Wallingford, Connecticut *Tracy, Indiana *Tracy, Iowa *Tracy, Kentucky *Tracy, Minnesota * * 1968 Tracy tornado *Tracy, Missouri *Tracy, New Jersey *Tracy City, Tennessee *Tracyton, Washington ;Canada *Tracy, New Brunswick *Sorel-Tracy, Quebec ;France *Tracy-Bocage, in the Calvados département, Basse-Normandy *Tracy-le-Mont, in the Oise département, Picardy *Tracy-le-Val, in the Oise département, Picardy *Tracy-sur-Loire, in the Nièvre département, Centre *Tracy-sur-Mer, in the Calvados département, Basse-Normandy 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tracy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
