About Johnnie
This spelling of the traditional nickname for John is a bit more feminine than Johnny, based on the fashion at the turn of the 20th century to use boyish diminutives ending in -ie for girls.
Johnnie for girls#3609 US
Using the 'ie' ending makes Johnny slightly more feminine, which must have been what Melissa Etheridge was thinking when she named one of her twins Johnnie Rose.
Pronounced JON-ee.
As of October 2026, Johnnie ranked #2295 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #74 in 1910.
