Tennie is a masculine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a diminutive form of names containing "ten" like Tennessee, a nickname for Dennis (particularly in Scottish usage), or derived from the Latin "tenere" meaning "to hold." In some Southern American communities, Tennie has historical usage for both genders but particularly for men. The name has a gentle, somewhat old-fashioned quality that harks back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries when nickname-style given names were more common. While never reaching widespread popularity, Tennie has persisted as an uncommon choice. Today, its vintage sound might appeal to parents seeking a distinctive name with a friendly, approachable quality and potential family connections.
