What is the meaning of the name Harmonie ?

Harmonie is Greek in Origin.

Harmonie is the French spelling of Harmony, ultimately from Greek Harmonia, a mythological figure whose name meant “joint, fitting together,” then “agreement, concord.” Through Latin and Old French, the word came to denote musical consonance; as a given name it carries both the abstract ideal of unity and the musical association.

In French records Harmonie appears sporadically in the 19th century and gains steadier use from the late 20th century; in English-speaking countries it functions as a stylish variant of Harmony, rising since the 1990s. Related forms include Harmony (English), Harmonia (Greek/Polish/Portuguese), Armonía (Spanish), and Armonia (Italian). Diminutives such as Harmie and Moni occur. The name’s mythic link to Harmonia, bride of Cadmus and emblem of civic concord, deepens its symbolism. Pronunciations vary by language: French ar-mo-NEE, English har-MUH-nee.
