Dennie Origin and Meaning

The name Dennie is a girl's name.

Dennie is primarily a feminine name in modern usage, though it has historical use as a masculine name as well. It originated as a diminutive form of Dennis or Denise, names derived from Dionysus, the Greek god of wine and revelry. As a feminine name, Dennie gained modest popularity in the mid-20th century, particularly in the 1940s and 1950s in America. It offers a playful, informal alternative to more formal names, with its friendly "-ie" ending giving it a warm, approachable quality. While never among the most common names, Dennie has a vintage charm that evokes mid-century Americana. Today, it's considered a rare choice that might appeal to parents seeking a sweet, simple name with retro appeal.
