It suits characters who present a cool exterior but reveal extraordinary depth under pressure.

“From the English surname Sidney, possibly derived from the Old English sidan meaning "wide, broad" and eg meaning "island" — "wide island" or "broad meadow by the water". Alternatively it may derive from the Norman place name Saint-Denis (from the French form of Dionysius). The surname Sidney became a given name partly through the prestige of the Elizabethan poet Sir Philip Sidney.”

The -ey spelling variant is primarily American, often found in male given names in the American South.”

The name may also be a variant of Rayna or of the Germanic Reinhilde.”
