Jennipher Origin and Meaning

The name Jennipher is a girl's name.

Jennipher is a creative spelling variant of Jennifer, which originated as a Cornish form of the Welsh name Gwenhwyfar (the original form of Guinevere). The name means "white fairy," "white wave," or "fair and smooth." This distinctive spelling with 'ph' instead of 'f' gives the classic name a unique twist while maintaining its familiar pronunciation. Jennifer became extraordinarily popular in the English-speaking world during the 1970s and 1980s, while alternative spellings like Jennipher have remained relatively uncommon, offering individuality. Parents who choose this spelling often appreciate the traditional name but desire something slightly unconventional that still honors the original name's heritage and meaning.
