Anthi is Greek in Origin.

Anthi (Greek: Ανθή) is a feminine given name of Greek origin meaning “flower” or “blossom.” It derives from ancient Greek ánthos (ἄνθος, “flower”); the form Anthi reflects the Classical plural ánthē (ἄνθη, “flowers”) and a modern Greek feminine usage. The sense evokes freshness, flourishing, and springtime.

Used primarily in Greece and Cyprus, Anthi came to wider use during the 19th–20th‑century revival of classical-style names, while echoing far older traditions: related forms such as Anthousa (Ἄνθουσα) appear in Byzantine hagiography. Variants and cognates include Ανθή (standard Greek spelling), Anthia, Antheia (ancient/Byzantine), and Anthea (English). Diminutives include Anthoula; longer forms like Anthousa and Anthoula often shorten to Anthi in everyday use. Masculine relatives are Anthimos and Anthos. Outside the Greek diaspora the name remains rare but is easily recognized via Anthea, all preserving the shared “flowery, blooming” meaning.
