History & Origin

Blonnie belongs with Blondie, a set of pet names from the word blonde, 'fair-haired,' which came into English from French. It reads as a fond nickname for a light-haired child that ended up on birth records in the early twentieth-century South. Its meaning is descriptive rather than drawn from a classical root.

It was never common, given to only about sixteen girls a year around its peak near 1928, and it disappeared from use within a few decades.

Did you know? Descriptive nicknames for fair-haired children sometimes became legal names a century ago; Blonnie sits beside Blondie in that small, affectionate group.
