Sydni
Sydni Origin and Meaning
Sydni is a modern spelling variation of Sydney, a name with English geographic origins. Traditional Sydney derives from the French Saint-Denis before becoming associated with the Australian city. As a personal name, Sydni represents the trend toward streamlined, phonetic spellings, removing what some consider unnecessary letters. This variation emerged primarily in the late 20th century as parents sought more distinctive ways to spell familiar names. Unlike the unisex traditional spelling, Sydni is almost exclusively feminine. The name saw increased popularity in the 1990s and 2000s but remains less common than Sydney. Sydni conveys a contemporary, slightly unconventional feel while maintaining the recognizable sound of its traditional counterpart.
