Euphie Origin and Meaning
The name Euphie is a girl's name.
Euphie is a charming feminine name that originated as a diminutive of Euphemia, derived from the Greek word "euphemos" meaning "well-spoken" or "of good repute." This sweet, shortened form became popular in Scotland during the 19th century and retained some popularity in the United Kingdom through the early 20th century. Euphie has a delightful vintage quality that evokes the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Though rare in contemporary use, it fits with the modern trend of reviving vintage diminutives as standalone names. The name carries associations of warmth, cheerfulness, and a certain old-world charm. Its distinctive sound sets it apart from more common vintage revivals.
