What is the meaning of the name Andi ?

The baby name Andi is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced AN-dee (IPA: /ˈændi/).

Andi is Greek in Origin.

Andi is a unisex diminutive derived from the Greek name Andreas (“man”, “manly, courageous”), transmitted into English through Andrew and into many European languages through Andrea/Andreas. As a nickname it appears across Europe (for Andreas/Andrei/Andrzej), while English speakers often reserve the -i spelling for a lighter, sometimes feminine-leaning style.

Since the mid‑20th century, Andi has been used independently in the US, UK, and Germany, reflecting the trend of nickname-as-given-name. In Hungary it serves as a pet form for both András and Andrea; in Indonesia, Andi also functions as a Bugis honorific-turned-given name, adding a separate cultural pathway. Variants and cognates include Andy, Andie, Andee, Andrea, Andreas, André, Andrés, Andrei, Andriy, and Andrzej. Overall meaning centers on bravery and virility, now broadened to signal approachable strength regardless of gender.
