Jeannine Origin and Meaning

The name Jeannine is a girl's name meaning "God is gracious".

This feminine form of Jean was most popular in the 1930s in its home country, and in the 1960s in the US. It's fallen off the Top 1000 list since, but perhaps cute retro nickname Jeannie could tempt some vintage-loving parents back.
