What is the meaning of the name Eni ?

The baby name Eni is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced EH-nee,/ˈɛni/ (stress on first syllable).

Eni is Albanian, Yoruba in Origin.

Eni is a compact cross-cultural given name with several roots. In Old English (Anglo-Saxon) it derives from Proto-Germanic ainaz “one, sole, unique,” attested as the name Eni, father of several 7th-century kings of East Anglia recorded by Bede. In Yoruba it functions as an independent name and diminutive element meaning “person, one,” familiar from compounds such as Eniola (“person of wealth”) and Enitan (“a person of story”). In Hungarian it serves as a pet form of Enikő, ultimately from Enéh, the mythic “doe,” giving the sense “little hind.”

Contemporary use spans genders and regions, notably in Nigeria, Albania/Kosovo (often as a short form of Enida or Enis), and Hungary. Related forms and variants include Enis, Enida, Enikő, Enni/Enny, Enie, and Yoruba compounds beginning with Eni-. Meanings therefore range from “unique; one” to “person” and, via Hungarian, “little doe.”
