Genni Origin and Meaning

The name Genni is a girl's name.

Genni is a charming feminine name that serves as a diminutive or variant of Genevieve, Jennifer, or Eugenia. With its simple two-syllable structure and playful double 'n,' it carries a friendly, approachable quality. The name has Italian connections, where it can be a nickname for Giovanna. Genni offers a balance between familiarity and uniqueness—recognizable in form but uncommon in usage. The name has never reached widespread popularity but maintains a quiet presence across different decades. Its short form makes it practical and memorable, while the spelling with an 'i' ending gives it a distinctive touch compared to the more common 'Genny' or 'Jennie' variations.
