}}Winnie or Winny (\\win-ny\\) is a male and female given name of Welsh origin, a short form (hypocorism) of Edwina, Winifred or Winnifred, Gwendolyn, Guinevere (Welsh), Gwyneth (Welsh), and Wynne (Welsh). The name's meaning is fair one; white and smooth; soft; happiness; or fair and pure. The popularity of the name Winnie steadily declined among American women in the 20th century, but in the 1990 US Census, still ranked 699th of 4276.[1]

It is also a male name from Cambodia (meaning bright),[2] or a short form of Winston, the best known example being Winston Churchill. It can derive from many other names ending in -win such as Edwin, Darwin, etc. or simply be a nickname for the Welsh name Wyn meaning "Fair, white; blessed, holy".
