Jaynie is a feminine name that serves as a modern, playful variant of Jane. Originating from the Hebrew name Yochanan meaning 'God is gracious,' Jane has evolved through many languages before this contemporary spelling emerged. The 'ie' ending adds a diminutive, affectionate quality to the traditional name. Jaynie gained modest popularity in the mid-20th century, particularly in English-speaking countries.
