Monnica Origin and Meaning

The name Monnica is a girl's name.

Monnica is a variant spelling of the more common Monica, a name with ancient roots dating back to North Africa. Originally derived from the Latin word 'moneo' meaning 'advisor' or 'one who warns,' it gained prominence through Saint Monica, the mother of Saint Augustine of Hippo, who was known for her perseverance and faith. The double 'n' spelling gives this version a distinctive appearance while maintaining the same pronunciation. Though less common than the standard spelling, Monnica offers a unique twist on a classic name. The name peaked in popularity during the 1970s and 1980s but has since declined, making it relatively uncommon for young children today, giving it a vintage yet recognizable quality.
