What does Minnie mean?
2 syllables

Minnie began as a pet form of names like Wilhelmina and Minerva — Wilhelmina, from Germanic roots, means 'resolute protector,' while Minerva was the Roman goddess of wisdom and strategy.

Small and spunky, it's a name that carries far more personality than its size suggests — perfect for a compact pet with an outsized spirit.
