Joni Origin and Meaning

The name Joni is a girl's name meaning "God is gracious".

Iconic folk singer Joni Mitchell (born Roberta Joan) lends this cute vintage nickname a cool, bohemian feel. This spelling feels more streamlined and modern than Mad Men-esque Joanie.

Joni has serious potential to rise along with other cute and spunky retro nicknames like Sadie and Edie, Billie and Birdie. In the nickname-loving UK, it is given to around 50 baby girls a year, putting it comfortably within the Top 1000.
