Georganne
Georganne Origin and Meaning
Georganne is a feminine name that blends the classic George (meaning 'farmer' or 'earth-worker' from Greek georgos) with the feminine suffix -anne. This combination creates a distinctive yet traditional-sounding name that peaked in popularity in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Georganne represents a naming trend of that era where compound feminine names were fashionable. While less common today, it maintains a timeless quality appreciated by parents seeking unique yet recognizable names. Georganne carries associations of strength and femininity, often being chosen to honor a relative named George while giving the name a distinctly feminine form. The name suggests someone with both practical capabilities and graceful character.
