Wendi is a feminine name that emerged as a variation of Wendy in the mid-20th century. While Wendy was popularized by J.M. Barrie's 'Peter Pan' (1904), where he essentially created the name, Wendi offers a more modern, casual spelling. The name has Germanic elements meaning 'friend' or 'wanderer.' Wendi saw its peak popularity in the United States during the 1960s and 1970s, fitting with naming trends that favored nicknames as formal names and creative spellings. The name conveys a friendly, approachable personality and retains the youthful, spirited associations of the original Wendy while appearing slightly more contemporary.
