Honesti is English in Origin.

Honesti is a modern English given name, a creative respelling of the virtue name Honesty. It derives ultimately from Latin honestus “honorable, decent,” by way of Old French honeste and Middle English honeste/honesty. As a virtue name, it evokes integrity, truthfulness, and upright character; in English usage “honesty” is also the common name of Lunaria annua (the silver dollar plant), long associated with sincerity and transparency.

While Puritan families in 16th–17th-century England popularized abstract virtue names, the Honesti spelling is a contemporary American innovation and remains rare. Variants include Honesty, Honestie, Honestee, and Honeste; related names are Honor/Honour, Honora, Honoria, and the French Honoré (masculine). The streamlined -i ending gives a modern, breezy look while preserving the traditional moral meaning at its core.
