feminine · English origin
Jenni is a feminine name functioning as a short form of Jennifer in English-speaking contexts and as an independent given name in Finnish. Jennifer itself derives from the Cornish form of the Welsh name Gwenhwyfar, composed of elements meaning white or fair and smooth or yielding, famously associated with the legendary Queen Guinevere of Arthurian tradition. In Finland, Jenni enjoys particular popularity as a standalone given name rather than merely a diminutive. Related forms include Jenny, Jennifer, and Jenna.
