What is the meaning of the name Epi ?

The baby name Epi is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈɛpi/ (EH-pee).

Epi is Greek in Origin.

Epi is a compact, unisex name rooted in Greek. Most commonly it serves as a familiar short form of Epiphanios/Epiphanius and its Romance descendants (Spanish Epifanio, Portuguese Epifânio, Italian Epifanio; feminine Epifanía/Epiphania). Those names derive from epiphaneia, "manifestation, appearance," built from epi "upon" + phainein "to show," source of the Christian feast Epiphany.

As a nickname, Epi has long circulated in Spanish-speaking communities and the Philippines for bearers of Epifanio, and in Greek families for Epifanios; in recent years it appears independently as a sleek given name in English and other languages. Related forms include Epiphanios/Epiphanius (Greek/Latin), Epifanio (Spanish/Italian/Portuguese, PT Epifânio), French Épiphane, and the feminine Epifanía/Epiphania; English Epiphany is a modern virtue-style variant. Epi’s crisp, two-syllable profile and positive "revelation" sense make it adaptable across cultures while remaining distinctive.
