Imogine Origin and Meaning
The name Imogine is a girl's name.
Imogine is a variant spelling of Imogen, a name with Celtic and Shakespearean roots. The traditional Imogen derives from the Gaelic word 'inghean,' meaning 'maiden' or 'daughter.' Shakespeare used the name in his play 'Cymbeline,' though it's believed he actually intended to use the name 'Innogen' but a printing error created 'Imogen.' The spelling variation Imogine adds a softer, more melodic quality to the name. While less common than Imogen, Imogine has an antique charm and literary connection that appeals to parents seeking a distinctive yet classic-sounding name for their daughters. The name carries connotations of strength, innocence, and imagination.
