Meaning:Fair one; Bright
Winne is a gender-neutral name that means “fair one” in Welsh. Considered to be the short form of Edwina, Winona, Winifred, Winter, Winston, Gwendolyn, Guinevere, and Gwyneth, you can choose to honor select friends, family, and mentors with just this one name. Winnie, its alternate spelling, has admittedly garnered much attention thanks to the likes of beloved fictional character Winnie the Pooh, South African anti-apartheid activist Winnie Mandela, and model and spokesperson on vitiligo Winnie Harlow. Winne, meanwhile, gives your little one a chance to make it their own! Moreover, in Cambodia, Winnie means “bright.” With so much goodness packed into this moniker, kindness and compassion will come like second nature to baby.
