Minne is a concise feminine name with multiple potential origins. In Germanic languages, it derives from the Old High German word for 'love' or 'remembrance,' having romantic connotations in medieval German poetry where 'Minnesingers' were love-song performers. Alternatively, it may function as a diminutive of Wilhelmina or Minerva, or as a variant of Minnie (itself traditionally a nickname for Mary). In Scandinavian contexts, Minne relates to memory or remembrance. The name's brevity gives it a contemporary feel despite its historical roots. Though uncommon in English-speaking countries, Minne maintains some usage in Northern European countries, offering a distinctive yet accessible choice with meaningful cultural connections.
