Andi a derivative of the male name Andrew meaning "Brave, Strong and Courageous". Also a derivative of the female name Andrea also meaning Brave, Strong, Independent and naturally 'Manly'?!? Andi, (also commonly used are Andee, Andie, Andy and a host of both masculine and feminine variations) is a more unisex spelling of a traditionally masculine name, though more commonly associated with the male spectrum this is an easily gender fluid name. My birth name is Andrew Alexander which I shorten I to suit me a 32 year old whom nobody takes seriously. I have shortend it to Andi Alex. I'm not a true and fullsome representative of gender fluidity and prefer the pronouns they, he, them, him and her, I have no preference and I don't mind when I get called the wrong thing by a good faith actor. Its only bad faith actors who are just tiresome. I find this most eggregrous because last I checked the results of what I had between my legs is, strictly and professional speaking nobody else's business.
