Cynnie Origin and Meaning

The name Cynnie is a girl's name.

Cynnie is a diminutive feminine name that typically serves as a nickname for longer names such as Cynthia, Cindy, or Cyndi. The root name Cynthia derives from Greek mythology, where it was an epithet for the goddess Artemis, who was born on Mount Cynthus. With its cheerful '-ie' ending, Cynnie creates a playful, affectionate variation that retains the classic origins while adding warmth and familiarity. This pet form emerged naturally in English-speaking communities as a term of endearment. While relatively uncommon as a legal given name, Cynnie occasionally appears on birth certificates as parents seek to bestow the sweet, informal version directly. The name conveys a friendly, approachable personality with a touch of vintage charm.
