Courtany Origin and Meaning

The name Courtany is a girl's name.

Courtany is a feminine name representing a spelling variation of Courtney. The original name has Anglo-Norman origins and derives from a place name meaning 'domain of Curtenus' or 'short settlement.' This particular spelling emerged as parents sought ways to personalize the extremely popular Courtney, which ranked in the U.S. top 100 girls' names from 1986 to 1998, peaking at #17 in 1990. The variant spelling maintains the same pronunciation while offering a touch of uniqueness. Courtany blends the traditional elegance of its medieval heritage with a contemporary twist in its spelling. Less common than the standard form, it appeals to parents who appreciate the name's pleasant sound but want something slightly different from the mainstream spelling.
