Pinkie Origin and Meaning

The name Pinkie is a girl's name meaning "pink".

Aside from the singer, there aren't many people around named Pink or Pinkie or Pinky -- zero, in fact.

In its heyday in the late 19th century, Pinkie was probably used for someone with pink skin, not a nickname you'd use today.

This is one name that should stay extinct.
