Cyndie Origin and Meaning

The name Cyndie is a girl's name.

Cyndie is a feminine name that serves as a variant spelling of Cindy, which itself originated as a diminutive of Cynthia. The name Cynthia derives from Greek mythology, referring to Artemis who was born on Mount Cynthus. The spelling variation with 'y' instead of 'i' and 'ie' instead of 'y' at the end gives the name a distinctive appearance while maintaining the familiar pronunciation. Cyndie saw modest popularity in the mid-20th century, particularly in the 1950s and 1960s, but has become less common in recent decades. The name has a friendly, approachable quality with a touch of retro charm, evoking the cheerful, all-American image associated with the name in mid-century popular culture.
